About

Michael Best provides legal, government affairs, and consulting services. With offices across the United States, we serve clients around the world. We are united by a strong set of values, including our commitment to excellent client service, innovation, and inclusion.

To design and implement solutions for our clients, we’ve assembled some of the nation’s most skilled and respected advisors from inside the halls of business and government. This experience adds valuable perspective when framing solutions in legal, policy, and political contexts. Through our strong network of relationships, clients also gain access to influential decision-makers.

Since our firm’s origins in 1848, we’ve continuously innovated to meet our clients’ changing needs and stay ahead of the curve. One thing remains the same: For generations, clients have relied on Michael Best for exceptional legal service and business acumen.

Michael Best can serve as a single partner for executing your vision. Our mission is to act as a true partner—to help you strategize, rise above challenges, and seize opportunities. Break out of the old “siloed services” model and get the benefit of our integrated services.

We can field a team of business advisors, lawyers, lobbyists, PR experts, and even scientists, depending on your goals and needs. Our unified approach enables Michael Best to build teams with the experience, skills, and relationships to deliver tactically targeted results. We also excel at creating solutions that address the complex—and sometimes conflicting—requirements of different government agencies or jurisdictions.

With more than 400 diverse professionals in 17 offices throughout the United States, including North Carolina, our geographic reach positions us well to serve clients’ needs at both the state and federal levels. Our nationwide experience, combined with our “between the coasts” focus, enables Michael Best to provide strategic, sophisticated counsel across the country.
