Overview:

Actual cases and proceedings with our involvement are in the panel to the right.

Telecom regulatory work can encompass many different activities - some examples follow:

Proceedings that address the implementation of new rules and regulations promulgated by the FCC and State Commissions. The Triennial Review Order by FCC (TRO) is one example referenced in our work in 2003 and 2004.

Antitrust reviews, audits, proceedings & suits,

Formal arbitrations with Competitive Local Exchange Carriers (CLECs) which often involve negotiations and litigation.

Regulatory collaboratives – which address industry issues under the supervision of Regulatory administrators.

Proceedings that establish pricing of retail and wholesale products provided by the Regional Bell Operating Companies ( RBOC )

Litigated proceedings that allow the RBOCs to offer Long Distance Service ( 271 ) under provisions of the FCC Telcom Act.
