Government Law
Navigating the Complexities of Local, State, and Federal Government
Government agencies operate within a complex system of policy making, legislation, regulations, processes, and procedures. Our lawyers have direct experience working in this complicated world. Our team has direct public sector experience, direct experience working in government, and long-standing relationships within federal agencies. We regularly counsel clients in the public and private sectors on corporate compliance, internal investigations, the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), lobbying, ethics, campaign finance, and the open meeting law.
