Our administrative and regulatory attorneys assist individuals or corporations in understanding and complying with these legal requirements. Or under more limited circumstances, they assist clients in challenging a government action. In practice, our administrative and regulatory attorneys provide services to individual and corporate clients who require counsel regarding complex government laws, rules, regulations, procedures, permitting, applications, or enforcement matters. Our specialized attorneys will most often be called upon when a governmental action may impact an individual or business. This encompasses a wide range of legal matters, from assisting an individual obtaining a building permit from a local government agency to responding to a federal regulatory enforcement action against a large corporation. They have general experience with government rules or specialize in a specific field. Our attorneys have specialized expertise in highly regulated industries such as environmental protection, land use, trade, tax, immigration, and employment.
Advertising law is a broad, fast-evolving area of law that is evolving in the world generally and in Kurdistan and Iraq in particular, this involves vetting claims about products and managing business practices to avoid misleading, deceiving, or defrauding consumers. Social media marketing scarcely existed a few years ago — is now among the most prominent advertising channels. At the same time, the traditional model of an advertiser working with an ad agency has evolved into an industry with a multitude of intermediaries including payment processors, affiliate marketers, endorsers, producers, and product developers, all of whom may play a role in advertising decisions that can create legal exposure. Companies and individuals involved in the advertising and promotion of products require attorneys who keep pace with new developments in the ways advertisers interact with consumers and how those efforts are regulated. Our attorneys understand the risks and potential liability associated with the different types of companies involved in advertising and promotional efforts. Their skills give advertising attorneys the ability to tailor advice to their client, no matter what type of advertising or promotion-related activity the client provides.
Our attorneys in this area have built an understanding designed to foster cases involving competition and promote consumer welfare by ensuring that businesses compete fairly based on the strength of their product and service offerings. Courts and governmental enforcement reflect the inherently fact-specific nature of antitrust jurisprudence. Variations in laws across different jurisdictions can add further complexities to analyses of business arrangements and practices. Accordingly, our attorneys handle the following types of matters: Litigation. Antitrust litigations frequently involve allegations of monopolization, price-fixing, and other agreements and activity that lessens competition. These suits often involve enormous exposure representing treble damages across entire industries. Businesses require advice from antitrust attorneys regarding the risks and benefits of the antitrust litigation process, which can involve treble damages (in civil litigation) or incarceration and significant fines (in criminal prosecutions). Counseling. On a day-to-day basis, many corporates require antitrust guidance regarding strategic pricing decisions, structuring distribution and licensing agreements, potential competitor collaborations, interlocking directorates, and a variety of other customer-, supplier-, or competitor-facing issues that may implicate the antitrust laws.
Our appellate lawyers possess different skills and strategic considerations than trial practice. On appeal, the focus shifts from developing and proving facts (through discovery, examining witnesses, and trial) to the legal issues that decide the case. Our appellate lawyer conducts thorough legal research; analyzes the legal issues in light of the rule-making and policy considerations that shape the development of law; and then presents the facts and those issues and arguments selected for appeal concisely in a persuasive appellate brief.
In the face of skyrocketing legal costs and court delays; in the face of "bet the company" and opportunistic lawsuits; and in the face of "made as instructed" "expert" witnesses, trusting neutral experienced (in both the law and the relevant factual/expert/business area in dispute) the arbitration process has become progressively a wise and a more rational choice. Hence, our experienced, cost conscious litigators and general counsel are turning ever more frequently to the process which they themselves control.
