Government Affairs

As the relationships between government and the private sector, and indeed between governmental organizations themselves, become more complex, Montgomery McCracken is well suited to deliver quality, high impact representation.  The firm provides a full range of services directed at all levels of government.  Our members combine significant government service - on the White House Staff, Capitol Hill, and State and Local government - with a hands on knowledge of the inner workings of government.

We counsel our clients on such matters as:

  • evaluating legislative and regulatory options
  • handling administrative proceedings
  • tracking legislative and agency activities
  • charting relationships between governmental entities

Should issues arise that go beyond the government affairs arena, Montgomery McCracken offers 160 lawyers in a variety of practice specialties to provide immediate and effective assistance.  Moreover, we are a member of the United States Law Firm Group which offers the services of firms in many U.S. jurisdictions enabling us to have access to substantial expertise in many states and localities.

Representative clients include:

  • Senator Arlen J. Spector
  • Governor of Commonwealth of Pennsylvania
  • private clients with significant governmental contracts;
  • a New Jersey company that disagreed with certain tariff provisions;
  • an independent City of Philadelphia Commission that oversees the Philadelphia Police Department;
  • an educational institution that encountered immigration problems.

Among our alumni are a former Justice of the United States Supreme Court, a former General Counsel to the United States Air Force, and a former Chairman of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission.  At Montgomery McCracken, we draw on a long history of public service to provide our clients with fair, effective and cost efficient advocacy before all types of governmental entities.
