Trade Associations
Industries sensitive to federal regulatory, tax, and trade policies need a platform in Washington. Fletcher, Heald & Hildreth, PLC has represented many trade associations, often serving as their general counsel. We help trade groups of all sizes to organize and communicate their concerns to policymakers.
We often help to assemble temporary coalitions to press for regulatory changes important to a particular industry. Our services include:
- navigating the legislative process and advocating for change (or, when appropriate, the status quo) on an industry-wide basis
- representing trade groups before the regulatory agencies
- advising new organizations on choice of corporate status, drafting and filing basic organizational documents, and applying for IRS not-for-profit status
- ensuring compliance with filing requirements filings at the federal and state levels
- consulting on day to day issues such as drafting and review of contracts, marketing, and public relations.
