The CommLaw Group is pleased to announce that attorney Michael P. Donahue has been elevated to partnership in the law practice. In recognition of his achievement and contributions, the firm will become Marashlian & Donahue, LLC, The CommLaw Group.
“We congratulate Michael for the manner in which he has distinguished himself and for his contributions to the success of the firm. We are very pleased to welcome him as a Partner in recognition of his dedication and achievements. As regulators and policymakers nationwide continue struggling to apply the rules of yesterday to the communications services and applications of tomorrow and also use their predictive judgment to define new rules to govern the dynamic and unpredictable industry we serve, we foresee an increase in regulatory activity and additional demand for the firm’s risk-management and FCC advocacy services during 2012. Michael’s appointment illustrates the firm’s commitment to continued growth and development,” stated Managing Partner Jonathan Marashlian.
Mr. Donahue is a graduate of the University of Southern California and received his Juris Doctorate, cum laude, from the Columbus School of Law at Catholic University.

Through his unique combination of in-house and outside counsel experiences serving some of the nation’s top communications service providers, Mr. Donahue has developed a proven record for delivering strategically sound, pragmatic management and proactive strategies for business clients.
