The lateral market for lawyers interacting with the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States is running hot this week.

Vinson & Elkins said Tuesday it recruited Damara Chambers, a leading CFIUS lawyer from Covington & Burling, to co-lead Vinson’s national security practice. On Monday, Linklaters said it brought on Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom CFIUS lawyer Jonathan Gafni to be senior counsel and head of its U.S. Foreign Investment practice. And the moves come after Norton Rose Fulbright’s international trade practice was bolstered last month by Stefan Reisinger, an experienced CFIUS practitioner, who returned to Norton Rose from Morgan, Lewis & Bockius.
