Sandler, Reiff, Young & Lamb partner Joseph Sandler was quoted today in a Washington Post article regarding loopholes in lobbyist registration. The article discusses how Republican Presidential candidate Newt Gingrich worked for many years after leaving Congress as a de facto lobbyist, yet never met the requirements that would have forced him register as one. Mr. Sandler, who last year co-chaired an American Bar Association task force on lobbying reforms, is quoted in the article as saying “It is very easy to escape the need to register. There are thousands of people in Washington who lobby without being lobbyists.”

Sandler, Reiff, Young & Lamb partners Joseph Sandler, Neil Reiff, and Jim Lamb were all recognized as three of Washington’s top lawyers by Washingtonian Magazine. They were recognized for their outstanding work in the field of election law in the magazine’s December 2011 feature on Washington’s Best Lawyers. As Washingtonian Magazine put it, “Candidates, political parties, and corporations call these campaigns-and-elections lawyers for guidance on campaign finance, ethics laws, and other rules of the political game.” This recognition is only the latest is a long string of honors and accomplishments for Sandler, Reiff, Lamb and the entire team at Sandler, Reiff, Young, & Lamb.
