More Budget Cliffs – Get Ready for Weeks of Bungee Jumping
OFW Law’s attorneys and policy advisors understand the unique challenges and regulatory environment faced by farmers, ranchers, and input suppliers. Although based in Washington, D.C., many of our professionals come from agricultural backgrounds, have prior experience in agribusiness, and in some cases, are actively involved in farming operations. Our professionals understand your business and work with you to provide creative and effective solutions based on decades of experience.
We regularly assist farm clients and input providers in understanding and navigating USDA, FDA, EPA, and U.S. Army Corps of Engineers regulations. We also represent clients in litigation and administrative proceedings involving compliance with federal regulations, environmental laws, and farm-related nuisance actions. OFW Law also provides outside counsel and advocacy services to some of the leading agricultural trade associations.
