Taft partner Sohan Dasgupta, Ph.D., spoke on regulatory matters and administrative law at Regent University on Nov. 21. He discussed the impact of the Supreme Court’s recent West Virginia v. EPA decision on businesses, individuals, and other private entities—one that stops federal agencies from deciding major policy questions without clear authorization from Congress.

Dasgupta is a strategic and experienced problem-solver representing clients before the U.S. Supreme Court, federal and state appellate and trial courts, government agencies, state legislatures, and Congress. His practice includes trial and appellate litigation, public law, investigations (including congressional, regulatory, and internal), regulatory and compliance matters, and international disputes (including international trade and international arbitration). He previously served as Deputy General Counsel of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and Special Counsel of the U.S. Department of Education.
