Firm Ranked #2 in Law Firm Affiliated Category; Two Additional Professionals Also Recognized

ATLANTA – Robb Willis, chairman of Troutman Pepper Strategies, the governmental affairs subsidiary of the national law firm Troutman Pepper, was named the top lobbyist in the state of Georgia in the September issue of JAMES magazine, an influential publication read by those helping to shape public opinion on major issues across Georgia.

In addition to the #1 ranking, Willis is on the “Hall of Fame” list for lobbyists, and Troutman Pepper Strategies was named the #2 lobbying firm. Governmental affairs specialists Matt Ralston and Ragen Marsh also made the list of top lobbyists.

According to JAMES, the rankings are based on the results of an online survey sent to subscribers and lobbyists and government affairs specialists statewide. The magazine also consulted with a select bipartisan advisory group of state lawmakers to help “ensure that the rankings are as comprehensive and accurate as possible.”

“The rankings are a testament to the dedication and hard work put in by our entire Troutman Pepper Strategies team in representing our clients’ interests before the Georgia General Assembly and the Executive Branch daily,” Willis said. “We are both humbled and delighted with this honor and will continue to maintain the highest levels of service to our clients.”

Founded in 2002, Troutman Pepper Strategies helps businesses and individuals solve the complexities of dealing with the government at every level – federal, state, and local. The governmental affairs firm now has nearly two dozen professionals assisting clients across the country.
