Covington & Burling Bolster Beijing Office

Timothy P. Stratford, the former assistant U.S. trade representative for China affairs, has joined Covington & Burling as a partner. He will be resident in the firm’s Beijing office, where he will practice in the international trade and finance group.

Stratford has lived and worked in China for more than 25 years, according to a firm press release. During his time at the USTR, Stratford worked with government officials in the U.S. and China on developing and implementing U.S-China trade policy.

Stratford will be joining several other former trade officials in Covington & Burling’s Beijing office, which opened in mid-2008. Also in China are Stu Eizenstat, former deputy treasury secretary; former deputy U.S. Trade Representative John Veroneau; and Al Larson, former undersecretary of state for economic affairs.
