Testimonials
Collated independently by Legal 500 research team.
- Standout partners are Bryan Tramont (a great leader of the firm and extremely well-connected while also being a great lawyer), Adam Krinsky (top wireless lawyer on spectrum and other wireless issues), Daniel Kahn (understands and effectively addresses complex telecom and administrative law issues), Christine Crowe (excellent contracts lawyer and very knowledgeable on wireless issues).
- 1. They are a firm that specializes in regulatory law and policy (tech, telecom, and energy). This is not a secondary focus, unlike many larger firms whose main revenue comes from other sources. 2. They have lawyers who understand virtually every aspect of tech and telecom law, and they work collectively so that the right lawyer is assigned to a project, regardless of who the billing partner is. Many of the lawyers have worked for government agencies and understand deeply how the regulatory process works, and they have relationships with the right people within those agencies to achieve results, from policy changes to transaction approvals. 3. They are strategic, focused not just on the law, but on how to achieve results, combining strong legal and policy arguments with practical solutions to address political or other non-legal issues that must be addressed.
