Hogan Lovells has hired Samantha Campbell, the head of Gide Loyrette Nouel’s Vietnam practice, as the head of its own Vietnam offices in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City.

Campbell, who will start in March, does a broad spectrum of corporate transactional, projects and finance work, as well as real estate and dispute resolution, with a focus on the infrastructure and energy sectors and financial institutions. Her clients include multinational corporations, banks and other financial institutions, as well as governments. 

In October last year, Hogan Lovells hired Jeff Olson from Allen & Overy as its first Vietnam-based corporate partner.
