More on our areas of practice

Interacting with any government entity can often be a confusing, intimidating, and inefficient process.  Clients  seeking legal representation before government bodies need experienced  advocates who understand the complexities of the government’s  regulatory, administrative hearing, and licensing processes and  agencies. 

​

As a former government official and experienced regulatory attorney, Jay  Reyes and the Riverside Law Group team are prepared to manage any local,  state, or federal government regulatory matter on your behalf. Whether  you have a minor matter or are dealing a full-blown government investigation, we are prepared to represent you every step of the way.

​
