Administrative / Regulatory Law & Government Relations

Wisconsin Legislative, Regulatory and Administrative Law Attorneys

As government becomes more and more complex, the need to interact with some element of federal, state or local government increases almost daily. A lawyer with knowledge of the many complexities involved is a necessity. At Murphy Desmond S.C., our governmental affairs team owns over 100 years of collective state, federal and local legislative and regulatory experience and has a proven record of achieving our clients' strategic goals.

Several of our Wisconsin administrative law attorneys have served in various senior-level capacities in government at the federal, state and local levels. They have a broad understanding of the legislative and administrative intricacies involved in the decision-making processes at all these levels and frequently appear before and work with state legislative committees and legislators, regulators, local elected officials and agencies, boards and commissions at the national, state, county and municipal levels.

The services we provide range from drafting proposals for legislative or administrative action, to enacting or defeating proposals, to working with agencies on a client problem. Our lawyers are always fierce defenders of a client's interests when a problem surfaces with any level or facet of government, and can engage in any litigation.

Part of a National Network of Government Relations Law Firms

In addition to our in-house ability to handle a problem in Wisconsin, we hold the honor of being the only Wisconsin firm to be selected as a member of State Law Resources , a national network of independent law firms (one in each state) selected for their superior ability in administrative, regulatory and government relations at the federal, state and local levels. This means that if your business needs assistance in another state with an issue pertaining to government relations, our lawyers can find a firm to meet your needs, and we can coordinate activities to ensure your needs are handled as well elsewhere as they are in Wisconsin.

In its 76 years of existence, Murphy Desmond S.C. has grown to encompass more than 40 lawyers, all with extensive experience in diverse areas of law. Along with our work in state and federal administrative law, we also have a team working in municipal law that applies to counties, towns, cities, villages, etc. Contact us today.
