State AG Group
As their state’s chief legal officer, state attorneys general (AGs) wield broad authority to investigate and take action on virtually any subject and in any industry. With the office increasingly serving as a springboard for higher political office, AGs across the country are continuing to grow in prominence, power, and influence. Any company that hires employees, makes or sells a product, offers a service, conducts marketing, or engages with consumers may be subject to scrutiny by an AG.
The Cozen O’Connor State AG Group was one of the nation’s first practices, and remains one of the largest, dedicated to representing clients in AG investigations and litigation, and counseling clients on state AG matters. Our attorneys work at the cutting edge of issues of critical importance to AGs, including antitrust, cybersecurity, data privacy, consumer protection, the environment, and labor laws. We serve a wide range of clients, from nimble startups to Fortune 50 companies. With more than 40 years’ experience and expertise, and backed by the resources of an AmLaw Global 100 firm, we help companies analyze and interpret AGs’ interests and understand how those interests inform their enforcement and policy priorities. We actively engage in dialogue with AG offices and regularly attend AG events and meetings to advocate on our clients’ behalf. Our team is nationally recognized for our deep understanding of how every AG office operates and our relationships in the AG community.
Our Team
Our attorneys have served both in senior government and in-house positions. We have first-hand experience in the formulation of policy positions. Our ranks include skilled litigators who have argued landmark cases and defended companies facing civil investigative demands, subpoenas, and lawsuits. We have represented clients in complex bet-the-company suits that often present novel legal issues and involve coordinated action by multiple AGs and federal regulators.
