Why Choose Us?

Our Lawyers

Our lawyers have a depth and breadth of focused experience that you are unlikely to find at large national and multinational litigation and business law firms. We specialize in communications, technology, and the Internet, and our clients benefit from our expertise. We take pride in our skills, our collegiality, and our success as advocates for our clients, working to achieve their business and policy objectives.

Our Experience

We are expert in virtually every area of communications law, and our clients ask us to represent them in a wide range of matters before the Federal Communications Commission and other Executive Branch agencies, federal district and appellate courts, Congress, and state regulatory bodies. Our clients include communications and Internet service providers (local, national, and international; wired and wireless; licensed and unlicensed; terrestrial and satellite; facilities-based and resale; common and private carriers; and broadcast and media), content providers, ancillary service providers, and equipment manufacturers.

In addition to regulatory matters, we handle transactional work for clients. We have experience drafting and reviewing contracts related to all facets of the communications industry, including various forms of intercarrier arrangements, franchise agreements, equity and debt financing documents, equipment leases and purchases, software and video programming license agreements, network affiliation agreements, and peering and service agreements, and we have substantial experience in assessing regulatory and legal issues related to venture and other financings and initial public offerings for technology companies.

Our Approach

The ongoing convergence of current technologies and the rapid emergence of new technologies have created a turbulent federal, state, and local regulatory environment as laws and regulations attempt to keep pace with technological change. We know the impact regulatory uncertainty has on clients' business plans and the deployment of capital and technologies, and we are committed to working efficiently and effectively toward a regulatory climate conducive to expanded business opportunities and the advancement of new technologies.
