Brownstein Hyatt Farber Schreck LLP is a lobbying and law firm based in the United States with 250 attorneys and policy consultants in 11 offices across the western U.S. and in Washington, D.C.

History

The firm was founded in 1968 by Norman Brownstein, Jack Hyatt, and Steve Farber in Denver, Colorado.[1] In 1995, the firm expanded their services to include lobbying.[2] On January 1, 2007, Brownstein Hyatt & Farber merged with Schreck Bignone and the new firm was named Brownstein Hyatt Farber Schreck. Frank Schreck is a former chairman of the Nevada Gaming Commission.[3]

As of April 2016, the firm has 11 offices across the United States. In 2015, Brownstein Hyatt Farber Schreck earned US$25.7 million for lobbying, making it the second-largest lobbying firm in the nation behind Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld.[1] A 2016 article in the Denver Post called the firm "a national juggernaut".[1]

Brownstein experienced a record year in 2015 with its revenue increasing by nearly 7 percent to $172.2 million and its net income increasing by 6 percent to $58.4 million. The firm’s profits per partner increased nearly 7 percent to $899,000.[4] Brownstein credits this growth to increased client demand and executing on its defined business strategy.
