Government Relations
Local, state and federal agencies heavily regulate many industries. Regulations can touch many parts of a business, including how land is used, financial reporting and internal employment policies. Failure to comply with all applicable regulations can expose a company to investigation, civil penalties and criminal liability.
Since 1993, Kane, Norby & Reddick, P.C., has provided ongoing government relations services to Dubuque businesses.
