Firm Overview
 

The Washington, DC law firm of CJ Lake, LLC offers creative and effective ways for clients to assess risk, solve problems, and achieve goals. We are a boutique firm, highly respected for our integrity, experience, and competence in the firm's legal practice areas, as well as in public policy and government affairs advocacy. The firm is nationally recognized for its expertise and accomplishments in employment, business and agriculture-related immigration law, as well as for its effective representation of numerous State, county, municipal, and university entities and private-sector interests. Our team has considerable private practice experience, as well as the insight derived from serving in senior policymaking positions in the White House, government agencies, and the United States Congress. The firm's lawyers and professionals have been actively involved in developing and shaping many of the federal laws and regulations that govern the conduct of the firm's clients.

CJ Lake's counseling, regulatory compliance, and litigation practice is national in scope. We are proud to count among our clients publicly-traded companies, closely-held businesses, non-profit organizations, State, county and municipal governments, universities, national and regional trade associations, agricultural entities, and individuals.

The firm regularly represents clients in enforcement and administrative matters before the Departments of Labor, Justice, Homeland Security, Agriculture, as well as the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, among others. It regularly represents businesses in individual and class action litigation in federal courts throughout the United States.

Beyond traditional legal representation, CJ Lake represents clients seeking assistance in navigating the federal legislative and regulatory process in order to seek improvements to current programs and obtain federal assistance with state and local governmental challenges. The firm also represents clients seeking to shape public policy on issues involving economic development, transportation, immigration, agriculture, employment, homeland security, environment, energy, health care, and tax. This dimension of the CJ Lake's practice places the firm at the forefront of developments in law and policy, ensuring clients remain fully informed and effectively represented as laws and regulations evolve and legislative and regulatory opportunities present themselves.
