Multistate Advocacy

The integration of our economy and the rise of technology has made it essential for attorneys general to work cooperatively across state lines if they are to engage in the traditional affirmative enforcement of state laws covering matters such as consumer protection, antitrust, charities, medicaid fraud and illegal internet related. activity  Over the last thirty years AG offices have developed protocols for such cooperation and this section explores that process.
