Covington & Burling announced that it has applied for a license to open an office in Shanghai, and has poached a five-lawyer team from Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati in Beijing and Palo Alto to help expand its China practice in the meantime.

The other three, partner SCOTT ANTHONY, senior adviser WEI ZHOU, and senior counsel CARMEN CHANG, will be based mainly in Silicon Valley.
