Administrative Law
Administrative law is the branch of law that focuses on the creation, operation, and procedures surrounding administrative agencies. From business licensing to medical compliance, from brand new tech companies to outdoor café seating, we can help you understand and navigate the local regulations that your business must follow. We can then fully advocate on your behalf before District boards, commissions, and agencies.
An important part of our administrative law practice involves responding to “Notice of Infraction,” and “Notice of Violation” letters on behalf of our clients. As a small business owner, you may receive a mailed letter from the Office of Administrative Hearings (OAH) or the Court of Appeals, advising you of a case related to a District government agency.
We can represent you in administrative law matters including:
- Matters before the District’s Office of Administrative Hearings
- Business Licensing, Permits, Stop Work Orders, Certificates of Occupancy
- Liquor Licensing
- D.C. Health Code
- Hack Inspector Cases
- Medical Marijuana
- Certificates of Need
- Office of the Inspector General Compliance and Response
- D.C. Office of Human Rights cases
- Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program Retailers
- Food Stamp Trafficking
- Notice of Violation or Notice of Infraction
- Daycare Facility Cases
- Stop Work Orders
- Agency Decision Appeals under the Administrative Procedures Act, including: DPW, DOES, DDOT, DCRA, DOH, OHR, OSSE
