Sam Sokol

Marrying the worlds of politics, policy, law, and communications, Sam brings over 15 years of experience handling the highest stakes governmental and private sector controversies to LMG. Prior to joining the firm, he served as Chief Oversight Counsel for the House Judiciary Committee Democratic staff, with responsibility for executive branch oversight and a wide range of national security, antitrust, IP, and criminal justice legislation. That work was highlighted by high profile investigations into alleged politicization of the Department of Justice, review of executive branch surveillance and interrogation practices, and a historic executive privilege lawsuit that resulted in the depositions of Karl Rove and Harriet Miers. Prior to joining the Committee, Sam was a litigator at WilmerHale representing Fortune 500 firms across the technology, energy, defense, financial, agriculture and other sectors.
