Washington, DC is where federal regulation, political compliance, and constitutional questions are decided, and where a growing number of our clients’ most consequential matters sit. Kaufman & Hilbert PC represents clients in Washington, DC and the surrounding region from our headquarters in Alpharetta, Georgia. We are a full-service, senior-led firm: the experienced litigators, corporate advisors, and former public-sector professionals you meet at your consultation are the attorneys who handle your matter. Whether you are a committee navigating federal campaign finance rules, an organization facing an agency proceeding, a business entering a federal contract or a DC transaction, or an individual challenging government action, our team brings decades of combined experience and practical judgment. Explore the practice area sections below, or call +1-770-299-0792 to schedule a consultation.
Washington is the center of gravity for political and election law, and the compliance obligations that attach to federal campaigns, committees, and advocacy organizations are unforgiving of good-faith mistakes. Our attorneys advise candidates, committees, PACs, party organizations, and advocacy groups on campaign finance and disclosure, ethics and lobbying registration, ballot access, and election administration questions, and we litigate election contests and constitutional challenges. The team includes former public-sector and policy professionals who have worked inside these processes rather than only around them.
Federal agencies decide matters that determine whether a business operates, a license is granted, or a program survives, and they do it under procedural rules that reward preparation and punish delay. We represent clients in agency investigations, enforcement actions, licensing and permitting proceedings, rulemaking comment and challenge, and administrative appeals, and we take those matters into federal court when the agency gets it wrong.
We counsel companies, associations, and organizations operating in or expanding into the Washington region on formation and governance, commercial agreements, mergers and acquisitions, intellectual property, and international transactions and inbound U.S. investment. For associations, nonprofits, and government-facing businesses, we coordinate that corporate work with the firm’s political and administrative practices, because for these clients the two are rarely separable.
When a dispute involves a client in the Washington region, we represent them in litigation, arbitration, and mediation, in business, employment, fiduciary, and real estate matters. Senior litigators handle the case from assessment through resolution, and we work with local counsel where a matter requires it.
We do not maintain an office in Washington, DC. What we offer clients in the District, Northern Virginia, and suburban Maryland is direct access to senior attorneys, remote and in-person availability for matters that require it, and a firm structured so that the person who evaluates your matter is the person who handles it. For many federal and regulatory matters, that structure matters more than a street address does. Our office is located at 100 N. Main Street, Suite 340, Alpharetta, GA 30009, and our attorneys travel for client matters.
