HOMELAND SECURITY FOCUS

Robertson & Anderson focuses on representing clients before agencies with homeland security responsibilities, particularly the Departments of Homeland Security, Justice, Transportation, Health and Human Services, Energy, Treasury and Defense. In addition, our experience enables us to advocate effectively on behalf of our clients before Department of Homeland Security component agencies, such as U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, FEMA, U.S. Customs and Border Protection, U.S. Coast Guard, U.S. Secret Service, the Science and Technology Directorate, the SAFETY Act Office, the Homeland Security Advanced Research Projects Agency (“HSARPA”) and the Transportation Security Administration.

Clients benefit from our experience with issues arising from federal and state homeland security efforts, including those regarding border security initiatives, transportation and cargo security, emergency preparedness and incident response, bio-defense, public health, chemical security, customs enforcement, and the protection of critical infrastructure and key resources. Our familiarity with federal and state programs designed to counter chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear and explosive threats is critical in advising clients about opportunities to collaborate with government and develop public-private partnerships. Robertson & Anderson assists clients with procurement opportunities, grants and other government-funded projects.

The SAFETY Act protects technology manufacturers, suppliers and system integrators from potential liability arising from deployment of their anti-terrorism products and services. SAFETY Act Certification and the attendant inclusion on the DHS "Approved Products List" is an essential component of an effective business strategy for companies operating in the homeland security market.
