Administrative & Regulatory Summary

Government regulation has a significant impact on business operations – of all types. Whether you are navigating bureaucracy, have an issue before the Michigan Public Service Commission, or a health care licensing dispute, our administrative lawyers have long-established practices before regulatory agencies and authorities at the local, state, and federal levels.

Our strength comes from the firm-wide resources at our fingertips, including a strong litigation practice, health care regulatory authorities, a significant public utilities practice, attorneys experienced in administrative and regulatory practices — and more.

Our administrative lawyers work closely with clients of all types: private individuals, associations, and businesses ranging from sole proprietorships to Fortune 500 companies. Recognizing our leading role in governmental and administrative law, we are the Michigan representative to the exclusive international association of SCG Legal, an organization of law firms, one from each of the capital cities of the 50 states, the provincial capitals of Canada, and other key cities throughout the world, which practice independently and not in a relationship for the joint practice of law. Through SCG Legal, our Firm has the opportunity to share information and resources, which help us to better serve our clients wherever your needs may be.
