The professionals in Nixon Peabody’s Government Relations and Public Policy practice have the ability to focus on a wide array of public policy matters, including housing and community development, real estate, tax, public finance and infrastructure, energy (including renewable energy incentives), environment and natural resources, health care, financial services, global finance and international business affairs, life sciences, education, automobile manufacturing, and transportation issues. With extensive experience working with and in the executive and legislative branches of government, our professionals have the knowledge and resources to further our clients’ interests in these important policy areas.
