Daniel Feldman Biography :

Daniel F. Feldman

Partner

Washington, D.C.

Reflecting his extensive and senior-level career experience with national security and foreign affairs, Daniel Feldman continues to help spearhead Foley Hoag's unique corporate social responsibility (CSR) practice. In this role he advises major multinational corporations on best practices with regard to human rights, labor rights, and indigenous rights issues, as well as on stakeholder relations with local communities, host governments, and non-governmental organizations.

The range of Daniel's clients that seek help with cutting-edge CSR concerns includes major companies and industry associations representing such activities as oil and gas production, mining, apparel and footwear manufacturing, and health care and clinical trials. These clients and many more receive informed, insightful guidance on development, implementation, and review of codes of conduct, human rights and labor conditions, environmental stewardship, trade policies and rule of law matters. Given Daniel's prior experience in both the executive and legislative branches of government, he also increasingly advises clients on U.S. government strategy, particularly with regard to corporations' activities abroad, and any Congressional or State Department interest in those regions.

The overall focus of Daniel's practice is to help clients adopt strategic policies to address the challenges and manage the opportunities of globalization. He concentrates on advising corporations, quasi-governmental organizations, and sovereign nations on risk management issues, utilizing a background in private sector legal practice, government service, crisis communications, media, and strategic consulting. His goal is to help clients interface effectively with the U.S. and foreign governments, the media, and non-governmental organizations.

Daniel has served as Director of Multilateral and Humanitarian Affairs at the National Security Council in the Clinton Administration, and as Counsel and Communications Adviser to the U.S. Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, on the staff of Sen. Joseph Lieberman. In his White House post he advised the National Security Advisor and the President on issues related to war crimes and accountability, the United Nations, global democracy promotion, international public law, and economic sanctions policy, and orchestrated the negotiation and President Clinton's signature of the International Criminal Court Treaty and the U.N. Optional Protocol on the Use of Child Soldiers (1999-2000). His responsibilities in Congress included advising Senator Lieberman and the Committee on national security issues, and organizing hearings and drafting legislation regarding homeland security, foreign policy, and environmental matters (2001-2002).

Daniel has been selected as a participant for a number of "next generation" programs identifying emerging foreign policy leaders, including those organized by the Asia Society (2007), the American Assembly's "Next Generation Project" (2007), the Rockefeller Brothers Fund's "U.S. in the World Task Force" (2006), the British American Project (2005), the German Marshall Fund's "Emerging Leaders Forum" (2003), the French-American Foundation's "Young Leaders Program" (2001, 2002), and the Salzburg Seminar's "International Human Rights" forum (2001). He formerly was also a Term Member of the Council on Foreign Relations.

Daniel founded, and continues to lead, a number of groups devoted to identifying, promoting, and organizing the "next generation" of Democrats engaged in foreign policy issues, including "Next Generation Democrats" and the "National Security Network" (as a board member along with Rand Beers, Amb. Dick Holbrooke, and others). He has held high-level posts with Democratic Party leaders, including as Deputy Press Secretary for Senator Lieberman on the 2000 Gore-Lieberman campaign in Nashville, TN, and on the Gore-Lieberman legal recount team in Tallahassee, FL (2000), as Senior Foreign Policy and National Security Advisor to Senator John Kerry in the 2004 presidential campaign, and most recently as Chief Foreign Policy and National Security Advisor for the potential presidential, Senatorial or gubernatorial campaigns former Virginia Gov. Mark Warner (D-VA).

Apart from his public service before joining Foley Hoag, Daniel was associated with two prominent national law firms. His practice emphasized the development of infrastructure projects and privatizations, with particular focus on energy matters in Latin America and Asia, and on issues of international political risk insurance.
