K&L Gates and Chadbourne & Parke have announced the opening of offices in Qatar and Turkey, respectively.

K&L Gates established its office in Doha, Qatar — its second in the region — with the assistance of partner Kenneth Freeling, a former Dewey & LeBoeuf partner in Doha specializing in IP litigation and antitrust matters who joined K&L Gates in March. (K&L Gates opened it first Middle East office, in Dubai, in 2009.)
