- Counsel to large corporations on the transactional aspects of satellite telecommunications business ventures, including U.S. and international tax and antitrust issues
- Provision of guidance on satellite regulatory developments that result from legislative action and FCC and World Radiocommunication Conference proceedings, such as counseling investors on the impact of FCC rulemaking proceedings on the financial integrity of a Mobile Satellite Service provider
