Katherine Brodie, Esq.

Policy Counsel

Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld LLP


Katherine Brodie has provided legal counsel and strategic policy advice to Akin Gump clients for over a decade.  Specifically, she has assisted corporate, nonprofit and government clients with defining, prioritizing, and implementing federal policy objectives, seeing initiatives through every step of the federal legislative process from initial drafting to final enactment.  She is experienced in a broad range of policy issues including education, appropriations, law enforcement, health, historic preservation, natural resource, and Indian law issues.

Akin Gump has been proud to provide pro bono legal services to the National Center for Learning Disabilities, and Ms. Brodie’s role on the Professional Advisory Board will help  enhance and expand the firm’s assistance to the organization.  Ms. Brodie’s education policy experience includes advocacy in Congress to restore funding cuts to Native American education grant programs, assisting a for-profit education publishing company with building relationships with key policymakers, assisting with formulation and enactment of a Native languages preservation bill, and assisting with enhancements to Indian education programs in the No Child Left Behind Act.

Ms. Brodie has a proven commitment to devoting a portion of her practice to the service of pro bono clients. She is a member of Akin Gump’s Pro Bono Committee and has been recognized by the firm for her pro bono work annually since 2003.  In 2007, she was awarded Akin Gump’s Firm-Wide Pro Bono Counsel of the Year award.  Her pro bono work was highlighted in 2006 by the Washington Post. She is a graduate of Bowdoin College and George Washington University Law School. Her proudest role is as the mother of a bright and energetic son who attends Montgomery County, Maryland public schools and copes with attention and learning challenges.
