Andrew A. Bernstein’s practice focuses on capital markets and transactions for sovereigns.

He also regularly represents sovereigns and state-owned companies in international transactions, particularly oil and gas projects and financings, as well as disputes.
Andrew joined the firm in 1987, became a partner in 1996, and became senior counsel in 2023. He practiced in the Moscow office from 1992 to 1994, and was resident in the New York office from 1994 to 1997.
