In today’s active enforcement climate, Nelson Mullins lawyers represent leading companies in every kind of interaction with state attorneys general—from inquiries and investigations to litigation and settlement. We defend clients in the pharmaceutical, energy, and technology industries, among many others, against allegations ranging from unfair trade practices to violations of energy regulations. We engage in ongoing dialogue with state AGs and their senior staff to educate them on our clients and emerging issues, and cultivate constructive relationships to address their concerns and to help resolve our clients’ matters satisfactorily.
Our team is primed to represent clients in state AG investigations, enforcement actions, and litigation in these and other areas:
To help them avoid becoming a target, we counsel clients to be in compliance with relevant regulations through audits, internal compliance programs, and management oversight, and educate them on risk exposure and legal liabilities if they fail to comply.
We educate clients on state AG investigation triggers like complaints, examinations, media coverage, and whistleblowers.
We advise clients on strategies to ethically and productively engage with state AG offices.
Team members are experienced with bipartisan state government relations and understand the role of state policy considerations that may affect state attorneys general decisions. We build strong communication channels with state AG offices, including with senior staff, which we use to update clients on relevant trends and contribute to statewide solutions AG offices seek. We also help set up opportunities for clients to air concerns and discuss initiatives they would like to see implemented in their state.
