Manufacturing

It can be a hostile environment for manufacturers in California. Over the last 30 years, has become an inhospitable environment in which to do business. We have represented the manufacturing community as a group, as well as individual manufacturers, engaging in some of the most critical issues facing these employers. Due to the diversity of our manufacturing clients, we have developed expertise in the full breadth of policy areas affecting the business community. This diversity has drawn us into issues as unique as Proposition 65 warnings, to “green chemistry,” to vehicle equipment mandates.

We have negotiated and defeated numerous bills aimed at disrupting valid industry practices.
