Agnes Dover is the Director of Hogan Lovells' government contracts group and has more than 30 years of experience working with government contractor clients, primarily in the defense, energy, information technology, and biotechnology industries. She provides strategic legal advice to clients facing increasingly complex procurement regulations when they do business with federal agencies, particularly the U.S. Departments of Defense and Energy. Her practice includes counseling on government contract compliance, teaming, and subcontract arrangements, and intellectual property issues. She has handled the government contracts issues associated with numerous M&A transactions, including industrial security issues that arise during the sale of government contractor entities to foreign owned companies as well as implementation of foreign ownership control and influence mitigation plans.
Agnes joined the Washington, D.C. office as a partner in January 1997 after serving as the Deputy General Counsel for procurement and technology transfer at the U.S. Department of Energy.
