This approach has benefited the firmâs clients time and again.<br><br>Members of the firm are at the Capitol every day the legislature is in session. Additionally, throughout the year, the firm is actively involved with legislative study committees and other legislative activities. Besides monitoring and interfacing with the legislature, the firm also actively monitors and interfaces with executive, judicial and regulatory branches and agencies of state government.<br><br></p> 615 616 617 618<p><strong>Regional and Local Government Relations<br><br></strong>In addition to strong relations with legislative and state officials, HighGroun
