Multi-estadual e local

For many companies, especially those without in-house government affairs departments, tracking legislation across multiple states is both daunting and expensive. There is an old adage: if you do not have a seat at the table, you are likely on the menu. Thus, the consequences of failing to be informed of critical legislative or regulatory proposals can be swift and severe and to the detriment of an organization. Foley understands that government solutions is not just about lobbying. Rather, it is the collaboration of government relations, risk management, and corporate communications all working in furtherance of the client’s strategic goals.
