When Cate Stetson next argues before the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit on April 17 (assuming it isn’t postponed), she will reach a major personal milestone: 100 oral arguments in federal and state courts across the country.

Stetson is the co-director of Hogan Lovells’ Appellate Practice Group and an elected member of the firm’s Global Board. She clerked for Judge Stanley Harris of the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia and Judge David Tatel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit. She joined Hogan in 1997, becoming partner in 2002.
