Powers Pyles Sutter & Verville PC

Powers Pyles Sutter & Verville PC Washington D.C. law firm focusing on healthcare, education, Native American law, and public policy.

Powers Pyles Sutter & Verville PC is a Washington, DC-based law firm that began with a strong focus on healthcare law and healthcare policy and has gradually expanded capabilities to include a national education practice, public policy and government relations services, representation of non-profit organizations, and representation of clients seeking expertise in other areas of administrative law.

In 2014, the firm further expanded its capabilities to include an Indian tribal governments practice group, which provides a full range of legal and government relations services to tribal governments and organizations.

It also prides itself in making a conscious and affirmative attempt to render an unusually personal and collegial form of service that is particularly tailored to the different needs and desires of individual clients, and to provide the highest quality of service in as efficient a manner as possible. Members of Powers Pyles Sutter & Verville PC are nationally known and have written and lectured extensively on issues within their particular areas of expertise. Their backgrounds include service with the Health Care Financing Administration; in the US Department of Health and Human Services; the former US Department of Health, Education, and Welfare; the Executive Office of the President; the Congress and the General Accounting Office; presidential commissions; the US Attorneys' offices; and in the private practice of law.
