When government action or inaction is at issue, sometimes the answer lies with the courts, sometimes with the legislative branch, and sometimes with executive branch and its agencies. Frequently the best and most efficient solution will involve a legislative or administrative answer. Determining the best course of action often requires split-second decision-making and the consequences of choosing the wrong path are often irreversible.

Using its public policy expertise, Leinenweber Baroni & Daffada can work closely with clients to prepare government relations strategies for advancing favorable legislation and regulations and improving client relationships with regulators and policy-makers.
