Drawing on her experience in the White House and US Senate, Lauren Moore advises clients on government and internal investigations and high-stakes litigation matters. She provides strategic counsel to clients facing complex issues at the intersection of law, politics, public policy, and media. Her clients span various industries, including health care and insurance companies, financial institutions, technology and software companies, accounting firms, and nonprofit organizations.

Ms. Moore also advises clients across industries on a range of public policy issues, including civil rights, international engagement, climate and energy, health care and the 340B drug pricing program, college sports, and H-1B and other non-immigrant visa issues. 

In addition, Ms. Moore represents clients in litigation matters that have a significant public policy component. She recently represented Tata Consultancy Services, an Indian information technology company, in qui tam litigation alleging fraudulent use of non-immigrant visas—securing an affirmance of dismissal in the Fifth Circuit and a partial affirmance of dismissal in the DC Circuit.

Since her return to private practice in 2022, Ms. Moore’s lawyering has been recognized by Bloomberg Law and the National Law Journal, among other publications.
