New trends in federalism continue to move regulatory and legislative power to the state and local levels. Policies ranging from antitrust enforcement to environmental protection to homeland security now impact companies as much in the states as in Congress or the federal bureaucracy. The Livingston Group has Washington-based professionals, as well as strategic alliances in a number of state capitals that can deliver results in key states. Arizona, Arkansas, Illinois, Louisiana, Massachusetts, New York, Maryland and Virginia are examples of our breadth of representation.
