Robert Kelner is quoted in Law.com's "Compliance Hot Spots" briefing. Commenting on the Justice Department's decision to release FARA advisory opinions, Kelner says, "I think this could make a big difference in how firms advise clients on FARA compliance because, up until now, we’ve all had to do a great deal of reading the tea leaves rather than having actual legal precedents to look at. The thing about having precedents is it allows you to not only understand the department’s position but, more importantly. to hold them to it.”
