I have lobbied for over 20+ years, before Republican and Democrat legislatures, Governors, and state officials. Lobbying is knowing the players, the rules, the process, where other groups stand on the issue, and the path to success. Being an attorney is a benefit since ultimately the lobbyist is advising clients on whether a legislative change solves the client's problem or creates one. The legislative process is unpredictable and it is beneficial to have someone knowledgeable about the process to help ensure a client's interests are promoted and protected.
