ALM is looking for a versatile news reporter for the Regulatory Desk in Washington to cover the U.S. Justice Department and other key agencies, in addition to white-collar practices at major U.S. law firms. The position offers a range of reporting opportunities focused on enforcement and compliance; government affairs, lobbying and congressional oversight; and the revolving door. The ideal candidate would approach the beat from a 360-degree perspective, pursuing coverage through the vantage of law firms and lawyers and the agencies themselves. Coverage will focus often on identifying key private and government lawyers; spotlighting enforcement trends; and showing how law firms are engaging with regulators. Our ideal white-collar reporter would also be expected to keep close tabs on major federal trial and appellate decisions.
