We advocate with
ATF on behalf of our clients. ATF
advocacy arises in two general situations.
The first situation is where a client is proactively attempting to
identify its compliance obligations. The
second situation is where a client is subject to adverse ATF action.
In the adverse
action context, we assist with compliance audits, warning conferences, and
revocation proceedings. We also
negotiate ATF Compliance Plans and FFL Discontinuance Agreements (the latter allowing a
client to wind-up its business in an orderly fashion).
In the proactive
compliance context, we assist clients with determination letters (seeking a
written opinion from ATF regarding the application of regulations), requests
for variances, and licensing.
