Municipal Law

KHKSE provides comprehensive legal representation in the sphere of municipal law representing municipal government entities and organizations throughout southeastern Washington. Our clients have included The Port of Pasco, The City of Connell, Burbank Irrigation and Benton PUD. We have also represented local fire departments and other municipal groups.

Many attorneys who handle municipal cases are hired by the municipalities themselves. It’s a benefit of being involved in such politics that they have access to legal representation on a case they can depend on and trust. The attorneys may even work as corporate counsel for the cities, which means that the attorney works for that particular city exclusively.

We have extensive experience in the efficient resolution of a broad range of complex municipal law matters. We are familiar with the local ordinances and regulations as well as the administrative procedures for resolving various types of disputes in each community. We have a strong record of success obtaining favorable outcomes for our clients.
