The partners at DTB Associates have excellent working relationships with
U.S. and many foreign government officials and are able to bring these resources to bear to help our clients resolve immediate
trade problems and accomplish longer term trade policy objectives. Our partners have worked on most agricultural trade issues
over the past three decades and have dealt with virtually every commodity and country.
Our partners have the experience necessary to respond
to a client's legal, business or policy needs in the trade arena, having served in key positions such as Special Trade
Counsel to the Secretary of Agriculture and Associate General Counsel for international affairs at the U.S. Department of
Agriculture, and in important diplomatic posts such as the U.S. Trade Representative’s Mission to the WTO in Geneva
(combined eight years) and the U.S. Mission to the EU in Brussels (another eight years).
They have also been involved in
a number of legislative and executive initiatives concerning fisheries policy, immigration, and appropriations, and are able
