Berke | Farah LLP

Navigating the law of politics (and more)

Politics is a regulated industry. At Berke Farah LLP, we provide legal advice and counsel to help clients navigate all aspects of the political process – including campaign finance, election law, government ethics, presidential nominations and Senate confirmations, lobbying law, corporate anti-corruption compliance, government investigations, non-profits, and fundraising. Beyond politics, we also represent clients on white collar criminal defense, regulatory, corporate governance, intellectual property, and entertainment law. Our clients include Fortune 500 companies, national trade associations, lobbying and public relations firms, political committees and campaigns, elected and appointed government officials, artists, musicians, and writers.

George Washington University Law School Appoints William J. Farah as Professional Lecturer in Law:

For the fourteenth consecutive year, GW Law School has named Mr. Farah a member of its adjunct faculty.  Each spring since 2001, he has taught the course "Lawyers, Lobbying & the Law,” which explores the various laws and skills associated with the political process  and public advocacy.  The course has proven to be particularly appealing to law students who work on Capitol Hill, as well as those holding positions with the White House, Executive Branch agencies and some of Washington’s leading trade associations and corporate government relations offices.  Mr. Farah team-teaches the course along with Tom Walls, a partner with the international law firm of Dentons.
