The Office of General Counsel is dedicated to serving as an indispensable and trusted partner in advancing the Laboratory’s mission.
We enable success by delivering proactive, pragmatic, and strategic counsel that allows the Laboratory advance deterrence and achieve its objectives while navigating risks with confidence.
The Los Alamos National Laboratory Office of General Counsel (OGC) works in close partnership with leadership and management to understand their objectives, identify and assess legal risks, and to develop and communicate strategies that enable mission success while appropriately balancing risk. We collaborate with internal clients to ensure compliance, strengthen governance, and remove barriers to effective execution of programs and projects. Through this collaborative approach, OGC is not only an advisory function but also a mission enabler — proactively engaging with scientific, operational, and management teams to deliver timely, practical, and innovative legal solutions that advance LANL’s national security objectives.
OGC is functionally organized into two groups, including our Business and Intellectual Property group and our General Law group. Our Business and Intellectual Property group provides legal advising in agreements and the LANL Prime Contract, procurement (including subcontracting and supply chain management), and technology transfer & intellectual property protection (software, patents, trademarks, copyright). Our General Law group provides legal advising and support in institutional compliance and permitting — including employment and labor, environmental law, ethics, health & safety, security, and data security & information practices — as well as litigation, investigations, and disputes.
