Firm Overview

The lawyers of Frankel PLLC combine decades of government contracts and regulatory experience with expert litigation skills to help companies do business with — and defend their interests against — all levels of US federal and state government as well as the UN. They are creative thinkers who take pride in solving their clients’ hardest problems. They are aggressive litigators, but have the judgment to know when an approach other than litigation would better serve their clients’ goals.

Frankel PLLC's founding lawyer left the partnership at one of the US's largest firms to pursue a different business model that would better serve clients. Frankel PLLC is streamlined, no-nonsense, and nimble. It hires only experienced attorneys who can handle matters efficiently, and does not pad its staffing with squadrons of junior lawyers. Frankel PLLC's clients include some of the US’s largest defense and civilian contractors, IT companies, international development organizations, and public utilities.
