Forum Nobis PLLC counsels individuals, communities, indigenous peoples, organizations, institutions, companies, and governments. We counsel clients directly; we also co-counsel with law firms engaged as primary counsel to provide "bolt-on" specialized services to specific clients; and we advise clients concerning their relationships with their large or small law firms. Forum Nobis regularly works with:

• clients engaged in international arbitration, litigation, or institutional proceedings involving human rights, community rights, indigenous peoples' rights, environmental rights, or otherwise raising issues of public rights at international law;
• clients seeking to intervene or serve as amicus curaie or other third party status in such proceedings;
• clients seeking strategic advice concerning the possibilities of such proceedings.

Forum Nobis PLLC counsels clients facing complex legal, strategy development, and communications challenges relating to international law, human rights, and the environment. We help clients fully understand the broader context -- and broader possibilities -- of the issues they face; define the interests they wish to advance or defend; analyze the comparative benefits of different courses of action; and achieve their goals as quickly and effectively as possible. Forum Nobis regularly works with clients who seek:

• superior legal counsel and representation in Washington, D.C., and other U.S. and international jurisdictions as permissible;
• targeted and cost-effective research and strategy development on legal, policy, and communications issues;
• effective presentation of issues in form of memoranda, reports, presentations, op-eds, press releases, speeches, briefing papers, and issue outlines;
• constructive outreach with print, television, film, and new media journalists, producers, commentators, and others;
• "bolt on" advisory services for a client's large or small law firms;
• counsel concerning a client's relationships with primary counsel.
