Legislative & Government Relations Group

The Vogel Law Firm represents businesses, industry trade associations and individuals in pursuing their legislative and public policy goals.  The Legislative and Government Relations Group seeks to help clients resolve their problems and achieve their objectives through interaction with the legislative and executive branches of government.  In short, the firm believes that representing clients in the statehouse is just as important as representing them in the courthouse.  Traditional legal remedies, such as litigation, are clearly the best course of action in many instances.  However, in other cases a client’s needs can best be addressed by a change in government policy brought about by the enactment of legislation or the promulgation of administrative rules.

We recognize that virtually every aspect of commercial activity is affected by legislative and regulatory activity.  We recognize as well that the growth of government in recent years requires that businesses creatively and aggressively develop and implement strategies for dealing with government.  Various aspects of government, state and federal, have become a pervasive influence on nearly all important private sector activities.  It is this recognition that led the firm to establish a group of highly trained and experienced lawyers that are effective at accomplishing in the public arena the goals and objectives set by our clients.  This is consistent with the commitment of the Vogel Law Firm to serve the entire range of needs of our clients.

The Vogel Law Firm’s Legislative and Government Relations Group has an experienced team in the broadest sense.  The team includes members with extensive experience as lobbyists for a wide range of various groups and individuals, extensive experience in trade association leadership, management and policy, extensive experience in government at very high levels, and extensive experience in the courtroom through active litigation and interpretation of legislative statutes.  This experienced team is backed by the extensive resources and reputation of North Dakota’s largest law firm.  Our team can draw on leading legal experts in the fields of health care, tax, real estate, litigation, banking, the environment, insurance, labor and employment, products liability, commercial transactions, bankruptcy and nearly every other area of civil law.
