Our clients are mainly local governments, schools and public agencies in their roles as regulators, infrastructure owners and market participants. Position involves working closely with clients to: research and write briefs before lower courts and courts of appeal; prepare and file comments with the Federal Communications Commission; develop policy papers and positions on communications issues affecting local governments; draft ordinances governing use of rights of way and governing land use by communications providers (including wireless facilities providers); and draft agreements and franchises with communications and cable companies. Location is open, but the candidate must be licensed to practice in California.
