Regulatory Compliance
Ongoing legislation and rulemaking continually change and alter the playing field for regulated industries in Florida. All members of these industries need to stay informed and actively involved in the change process. At times, it is necessary for the industries to have a voice in the outcome of this change process. Our members can draft industry related legislation, both for private industries and government. We can also testify before state legislative bodies or executive branch agencies for private industry and government.
ILG also recognizes that communication with government does not end after legislation is passed. We know that those who implement laws and policies can affect their business just as much as policy makers. Our team advises clients of potential regulatory rule or policy changes that can affect their business. We also work with clients to solve regulatory issues.
Our clients have the benefit of the former Secretary of the Department of Business and Professional Regulation to assist them with their regulatory issues. DBPR is the primary business regulatory agency in the state of Florida. The agency licenses and regulates over 1 million Floridians across 25 professions and over 200 different license categories. We believe that understanding the law, being familiar with the process and knowing the people put our clients in the best position to proceed.
