Law Firm Political Contributions: Why And How
Editor's Note: A&FP got lucky this summer when I sought an expert to advise our readers on law firm political contributions.

Our readers thus gain not only the perspective of a major firm's PAC Director but also the perspective of the same firm's CFO. Major thanks are also due to Arent Fox's Scott Ward for preparing the sidebar.
Ironically, Engle's expertise in political matters almost cost this edition the article: he got so busy in connection with the GOP convention that the only time he could free up to check the interview transcript was on a long plane trip!
