Message from the Chair
Section Chair:
Meredith Ladd
Brown & Hofmeister LLP
Richardson, Texas
It is an honor to serve as the chair of the State and Local Government Relations Section. Prior to beginning my tenure in October, I had the good fortune to attend the 2011 Federal Bar Association Annual National Convention in Chicago. This experience provided me with the opportunity to develop relationships with other Federal Bar Association section and division chairs and chairs-elect. I am working with these members to help develop and promote this Section.
State and local government attorneys advise clients in a wide variety of areas. Our practices can range from daily transactional functions to litigation involving state and federal statutory claims. It is my goal to provide a forum to share the wealth of knowledge that each of you practicing in these areas possess.
I would like to personally issue an open invitation to all attorneys interested in government relations. Further, I encourage all state and local government attorneys to join this Section and become part of the knowledge bank we are striving to develop.
All the best,
Meredith Ladd
