At
Zielke Law Firm we seek to help clients with a broad range of
administrative and regulatory issues by providing both guidance and
representation. The practice consists of experienced lawyers who handle
administrative and regulatory matters before all levels of local, state
and federal administrative agencies, as well as before state and
federal courts.
Our experience in this field of law includes legislative services,
administrative regulations, public utilities, insurance, energy,
natural resources and environmental protection, open records,
administrative agencies, and easements.
Zielke Law Firm seeks to utilize a team legal approach to efficiently
and effectively handle clients' administrative law needs. This
philosophy has proven to be highly effective in assisting our clients
in navigating an increasingly complex regulatory environment.
Our attorneys closely follow the impact that changes in the regulatory
environment have on our clients in business and industry. They work
with local, state, and federal agencies to resolve specific matters
that affect our clients, utilizing the necessary procedures to get
proper consideration for their matters. These procedures may include
negotiation with agency officials, government/business relations,
obtaining permits and licenses, problem-solving, representation at
agency hearings, litigation before state and federal courts, appeals to
the Kentucky Court of Appeals and Kentucky Supreme Court, as well as
appeals to the Federal Courts of Appeals and U.S. Supreme Court.
Our goal is to resolve matters for clients through negotiation and at
the administrative level. However, matters may inevitably go to hearing
before executive agencies with procedures which vary from informal
conferences to formal trials. These hearings may, in turn, be appealed
to the state or federal appellate courts.
Effective representation of our clients' interests encompasses all
levels of representation, and our attorneys have an extensive breadth
of experience in various jurisdictions. Ultimately, the best measure of
our effectiveness has been our clients' record of achieving positive
results with regulatory and administrative law matters, allowing them
to concentrate their efforts on business success.
Where necessary to accomplish business objectives, Zielke Law Firm can
also assist clients to obtain changes in the law and in regulations.
These changes can be achieved through the lobbying and drafting of
proposed legislative and agency rule changes, and through legal
advocacy.
