# Brownstein Hyatt Farber Schreck
A Denver-founded law-and-lobbying firm that is consistently among the very top earners on K Street — frequently the #1 lobbying firm by revenue before the 2025 surge of Trump-world shops. **Bipartisan**: Brownstein staffs rainmakers from both parties and sells legislative and regulatory access regardless of which side holds power, which is why it is in this KB as a revenue giant rather than a partisan actor.
## Scale
Brownstein posted a **record $18.5 million in Q2 2025** — its highest-ever quarter — driven by a wave of lobbying around the **One Big Beautiful Bill Act**, the Trump tax-and-spending law signed July 4, 2025. The firm's client roster runs into the hundreds ([[Apollo Global Management]], Nippon Steel, T-Mobile, DocuSign, Grindr, among many others).
## Why it's here
Brownstein is the benchmark "establishment" K Street firm against which the [[Second Trump Administration]]'s favored Trump-world shops ([[Ballard Partners]], [[Miller Strategies]]) are measured. Its record 2025 came from the same source — the OBBBA scramble — showing the lobbying boom lifted both the partisan newcomers and the bipartisan incumbents. See [[Lobbying Hub]].
