Wilson Elser Moskowitz Edelman & Dicker is looking to duplicate the lobbying success it’s had at New York’s capital at Connecticut’s seat of government, firm leaders said. In early January, the national law firm announced the opening of a new office in Hartford that will focus in part on governmental relations.

Wilson Elser “has the most successful lobbying firm in Albany,” said David A. Rose, the partner responsible for forming the law firm’s governmental relations practice in Connecticut. According to the New York State Joint Commission on Public Ethics, Wilson Elser has more than 160 lobbying clients in Albany.
