Regulatory

Overview

All businesses have to comply with government regulations—some more so than others. Michael Best’s Regulatory practice is designed to serve clients in heavily regulated industries, such as manufacturing and utility services, as well as across various industries in regulated areas that impact business as a whole, such as environmental regulation.

We have deep experience assisting clients with regulatory compliance and defense in each of these areas, combined with the capability to deliver a broad range of legal services. Our lawyers work in collaborative teams to advise clients in virtually all aspects of regulatory compliance, across practice areas including environmental, energy, corporate, intellectual property, labor and employment, M&A, real estate, tax, and more.
