Practice Profile: Katherine A. Rocco is a partner and co-chair of the New York Litigation and Trial Department at Lathan & Watkins. A litigator with a unique practice spanning the spectrum of civil, criminal and merger antitrust work, Rocco has established herself as a leading practitioner and thought leader in the complex and rapidly evolving area of antitrust regulatory enforcement. She represents a number of large public companies and private equity companies. In particular, her deep knowledge on the novel issues PE companies face is an unvaluable asset for clients given US antitrust enforcers have exponentially increased scrutiny of PE deals, including but not limited to the current Departments of Justice’s enforcement in the Clayton Act Section 8 board interlock area.

Leadership, Pro Bono and Civic Work: Rocco was recently appointed co-chair of Latham’s New York Litigation & Trial Department. She is a board member of the New Leadership Program for New York’s Legal Aid Society. She previously served in the leadership of, and was a member, of the Civil Rights Committee of the New York City Bar Association (2010–2018), acting as an independent legal observer at the Guantanamo Bay military tribunals in Cuba in 2012 and 2014, and preparing amicus briefs for the U.S. Supreme Court on issues like warrantless wiretapping.
