Notable practitioners
Brandon Van Grack serves as co-chair of Morrison Foerster's crisis management group. As former head of the DOJ's Foreign Agents Registration Act unit, he is well placed to advise clients on national security and political risks.
Brandon sees around corners. He tells me where the government is going. He is also very good at assessing the degree of risk and advising what guardrails are in place to reduce legal risk.
Brandon's experience helps him evaluate how the government is likely to respond to certain things. He takes that insight and translates it into what we have to worry about and not worry about.
