Covington works with legislative and government affairs matters at the federal, state, and local levels for individuals, companies, governments, and trade associations. Our work encompasses a sweeping array of issues, including matters involving energy, tax, financial institutions, transportation, privacy, communications, international trade, campaign finance, health care, intellectual property, food and drug, tobacco, tort and product liability, professional sports, and corporate issues. Our lawyers and other professionals regularly monitor, advise, and lobby on behalf of clients with respect to federal, state, and local legislation. Many of our lawyers have extensive experience working on Capitol Hill and in executive branch agencies. Many of those who focus on legislation bring years of legislative background to their work.
