With their ability to investigate and litigate in almost any industry, on almost any topic, State Attorneys General establish and enforce standards for business, consumer protection, and public health and safety. And they can create major opportunities—and problems—for you and your business.

Pulling from our collective experiences of working with, for, and across the table of State AG matters, Kelley Drye brings valuable insight, credibility, and capacities. Members of our team served State AGs in both the front office and at the staff level across the country. Likewise, members of our team served as special counsel or special attorneys general for a dozen states and territories in record-breaking environmental and natural resource matters.
For decades, our attorneys have represented businesses, government entities, and public sector agencies in individual state and multi-state regulatory investigations and litigation matters involving consumer protection, privacy, data security, and environmental issues, among others.
From opioids and vaping to privacy and mobile billing, our attorneys understand what is happening behind the scenes when your company is in the crosshairs and on the front page.
Members of our team worked in State AG offices on the most significant consumer protection issues of the last several decades. With more than 40 years’ collective consumer protection experience, we understand what drives State AGs to investigate, how multi-state investigations form and proceed, and what outcomes they may be seeking.
Because our team members have experience in so many varied consumer protection offices, their experience is wide-ranging. They’ve handled privacy and data security (with an emphasis on children’s privacy), charities, pharmaceuticals, negative options, dark patterns, drip pricing, and price gouging. In their roles, our attorneys received tens of thousands of consumer complaints and helped coordinate and set policy priorities for their offices.
