SW: Alber split
'''Cassidy & Associates''' is a Washington D.C headquartered lobbying company that was formed in 1975.
Cassidy's European work took a hit in April, 2007 when it was reported that six top lawyers had left the firm to set up a new company, [[Alber & Geiger]]. "Former Advocate General of the European Court of Justice [[Siegbert Alber]] and former CEO of Cassidy in Brussels [[Andreas Geiger]] set up Alber & Geiger, a specialist government lobbying law firm in the Belgian capital last month. Founding partner Geiger said: 'We're the first lobbying-focused law firm in Europe and we're following the lobbying law model from Washington [DC]. It wasn't possible for us to have this set-up under the umbrella of [[Interpublic]], which owns Cassidy & Associates." [http://www.thelawyer.com/cgi-bin/item.cgi?id=125252&d=122&h=24&f=46]
