Michael F. Brozek

Michael Brozek heads a group of outstanding professionals with extensive knowledge of state, federal, administrative and local governments. Regularly named as one of Wisconsin’s top lobbying and “most effective” firms, Brozek emphasizes innovation and creativity in the service of his clients.

Early in his career, Michael served as an assistant to newly elected Wisconsin Attorney General, Bronson C. LaFollette, with responsibility for assisting in the Attorney General’s transition after the election. After completing this transition, Michael left the Attorney General’s office to organize the State Medical Society of Wisconsin for the creation of a new legislative and public affairs division…serving as the legislative lobbyist for the 6,000 member physicians’ trade association. This reorganization propelled Wisconsin physician trade association back into political prominence, after years of legislative decline. Michael was ultimately honored by the American Medical Association with its highest award for an industry-media production outlining legislative organization and process.

Michael Brozek is now retained by a large and diverse spectrum of clients including national and international financial institutions, entertainment, gaming, manufacturing, energy and telecommunication industries who seek competent, professional representation before the Wisconsin Legislature, executive agencies, the United States Congress and federal agencies.

Mr. Brozek is regularly called upon to organize innovative business ventures between the private and public sector. Several of these projects have generated worldwide recognition. On one such project, for example, under the efforts of legislative leadership and key Thompson Administration officials, Michael and Scott Mitchen wrote legislation enabling the harvesting of millions of 100-year-old sunken logs from the bottom of Lake Superior. This revolutionary approach to recycling long abandoned cut timber has become the international standard in the recovery and production of the highest quality, and in some cases extinct, hardwoods. This project has received the acclaim of major media and business publications including The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, 60 Minutes and The Discovery Channel, as well as many other international environmental and governmental publications.

Mr. Brozek is also very active in sports and entertainment enterprises throughout the United States. Michael’s representation of Carl Haas, of the world championship Paul Newman-Carl Haas Racing Team, a team which has included race champions Mario Andretti and Michael Andretti has been nationally recognized. Michael is widely cited as the major factor in bringing Championship CART and NASCAR racing back to Wisconsin’s “Milwaukee Mile”. Michael’s efforts to further expand Wisconsin’s presence in the racing industry also include his work with Indianapolis 500 President Tony George and the Wisconsin Governor for new racing venues in Wisconsin.

Mr. Brozek has served on numerous business trade missions to Germany, Poland and Russia with Governor Thompson and Wisconsin industrial leaders, to promote Wisconsin manufacturing and agricultural business interests worldwide.

More recently and in addition to state based public sector activities, Michael has concentrated on federal health policy in Washington DC, most notably at the United Stated Department of Health and Human Services with HHS Secretary Tommy Thompson. Michael represents many national health interests as well as European health related companies. These companies include provider health services, diagnostic and pharmacological products, Medicare/Medicaid fraud detection, Food and Drug Administration corporate product approval, as well as numerous innovative health services.
