Rates and Regulation

We have participated in rate-making and utility regulation for over 30 years, representing a diverse client base, including one of the largest customers of ComEd, municipalities, governmental agencies, and associations.  Over the years, our attorneys have saved clients literally millions of dollars through lower electric, gas, and water rates.  Prior to representing consumers, we represented municipally-owned and cooperatively-owned electric utilities.

Over the years, we have successfully fought rate increases by electric, water, and gas utilities.  We have saved clients millions of dollar that their utilities sought to charge them.  Our attorneys have appeared before:

  • Illinois Commerce Commission
  • Texas Public Utility Commission
  • Texas Railroad Commission
  • Nuclear Regulatory Commission
  • Federal Energy Regulatory Commission

If your company, municipality, or association has a question about utility rates, give us a call.

Telecommunications

We have represented several competitive telecommunications carriers in their regulatory affairs.  We also have represented municipalities and counties in obtaining certificates to operate as local exchange carriers.
