Patton Boggs is based in Washington DC, where the firm has been a leading member of the business and legal communities since our founding here in 1962. Long recognized as the nation’s leading public policy law firm, Patton Boggs was a pioneer in merging public policy expertise with traditional legal practice. Today, professionals in our Washington office are recognized internationally for their in-depth knowledge of how government works, their strong, bipartisan relationships with policy makers, and their skill as advocates for their clients. 

The Washington office has also paid close attention to the bedrock of our practice by recruiting top-flight litigators and professionals with a keen understanding of business and finance. Thus, in addition to our unparalleled public policy practice, the Washington office is also home to exceptional business, litigation and intellectual property practices.  Working closely with their colleagues in the firm’s other offices, our Washington attorneys are able to provide virtually any legal service with depth and skill. 

The Washington office is located on the dividing line between the historic neighborhood of Georgetown and the downtown office and commercial district. Georgetown offers visitors and guests a wide selection of fine hotels, restaurants, and shops, as well as the Georgetown University campus, the George Washington University campus, and many parks and gardens.

Our office is a 20-minute cab ride from Union Station (Amtrak), a 15-minute ride from Reagan National Airport, and 45 minutes from Dulles International Airport.  The Foggy Bottom-GWU Metro station is a 10-minute walk from our office.
