Adams & Reese ranks No. 77 among the nation’s “Top-Performing Lobbying Firms of 2024,” according to Bloomberg Government’s 10th annual report. Adams & Reese improved 28 positions from last year.

Bloomberg Government analyzes the Lobbying Disclosure Act reports from registered lobbying firms that filed with the U.S. House and Senate. This annual report focuses on close to 400 law firms and lobbyist groups that reported $1 million or more in revenue and lobbying activity in each quarter of the year.  

The data was filtered by five metrics: growth in revenue, growth in average revenue per client, short- and long-term customer retention rates, and revenue per registered lobbyist. Firms also met the “standout” designation of retaining 80% or more of their clients from the preceding year and 60% or more of their clients over three consecutive years.  

The Adams & Reese Government Relations Team is a subsection of the Adams & Reese IBG Practice Group and has more than 75 attorneys and advisors located across eight state capitals, including DC. The Adams & Reese GR Team represents clients in DC at the federal level, and provides advocacy, lobbying, support, and legal counsel at the local and state levels to companies, trade associations, municipalities, city and county governments, parishes, universities, and nonprofits. The firm’s GR team members include former members of Congress, former state legislative leadership, former staffers, and a former U.S. Ambassador.   

The GR team’s services include a range of government relations needs, including: lobbying; congressional oversight; interests before government departments, agencies and legislative bodies; research and policy analysis; drafting or delivering of testimony; preparation and distribution of advocacy material; grassroots support; and understanding of regulatory issues, tax codes, public and private finance, economic development incentives, and the many multi layers of the matrix that make up the intersection of business and government.
