Doreen M. Edelman, partner and Chair of Lowenstein’s Global Trade & National Security practice, has been named by TerraLex as one of its 2026 ‘Trailblazing Women.’
TerraLex’s ‘Trailblazing Women’ is a campaign created to honor women leaders within TerraLex member firms worldwide, launched in connection with Women’s History Month. The organization aims to recognize leaders who are making a meaningful impact across the TerraLex network and the legal profession, stating: “These women are driving excellence within their organizations, mentoring the next generation, and strengthening the profession worldwide.”

Edelman is ranked in Chambers USA (2025) and Chambers Global (2025) for her Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS) work. She is well-known for her in-depth knowledge of trade policy and her years of counseling clients with questions about imports and exports, where she has assisted both large publicly traded companies and small companies with emerging technologies to stay compliant with both the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR), Export Administration Regulations (EAR), and with Customs and Border Protection (CBP) import regulations. In addition, her practice includes advice to clients faced with Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) sanctions compliance, as well as related M&A deal diligence.
