Business decision-making must consider the shifting paradigm among the three branches of the federal government. Congress empowers federal regulators by giving them authority to act. These agencies then create rules, enforce them, and resolve disputes, and their work impacts nearly all domestic and international industries involved in U.S. commerce. Federal courts have recently taken a more proactive approach in supervising agency activities.
Thompson Coburn’s lawyers and lobbyists have decades of experience and represent clients in complex and critical regulatory issues arising before federal agencies, courts, administrative tribunals, Congress, and international bodies. We don’t just understand law, regulation and legislation; we engage with their development and enforcement at every step.
Our Regulatory Practice Group works with many businesses, institutions, and other entities that interact with federal, state, and local governments. We are able to deploy our valuable insight, subject matter knowledge, and a vast network of contacts to resolve legal issues for our clients. Our attorneys practice law before federal regulators and apply our understanding of regulatory priorities and agency operations to successfully satisfy client objectives. Similarly, our lobbyists work with the committees of jurisdiction on Capitol Hill and the senior levels of the Executive Branch to combat existential threats, manage regulatory risks, and pursue growth opportunities by creating or expanding federal programs.
