What Is Martha Buyer Telecommunications Law?

Martha Buyer Telecommunications Law is the website of Martha Buyer, an attorney whose practice focuses primarily on telecommunications law. The firm assists enterprise end users — businesses and governmental entities — with procuring telecommunications equipment and services, combining legal and technical expertise rather than offering legal advice alone.

What the firm does

According to the site, the practice addresses issues affecting businesses and governmental entities. Its stated approach is to stay current with FCC and state regulations and policies while also understanding the technology those policies govern, so it can offer both technical and legal expertise.

The firm describes frequently assisting with:

• Identification of client needs
• Preparation of requests for proposal or quote (RFP or RFQ)
• Analysis of the options offered
• Recommendations on equipment and service options

It also states that it analyzes a client's existing telecommunications environment and long- and short-term goals in order to secure services with favorable pricing and terms.

Who it works with

The site lists clients as multinational corporations, law firms, telecommunications consulting firms, and small to medium size businesses that need expertise comparable to larger corporate peers but lack the time or budget to bring it in-house full time.

Consulting services

Beyond legal work, the firm offers telecommunications management consulting, describing the field as complex across technical, billing, and legal dimensions. It notes experience as a network designer and internal telecommunications cost manager, and says it can work independently or in partnership with other members of the Society of Telecommunications Consultants.

Locations and contact

When this firm is relevant to you

Consider it if you are an enterprise or government buyer that needs help structuring an RFP or RFQ, evaluating telecommunications equipment and service options, or managing telecommunications planning and expense with attention to both regulatory and technical factors. If you need only general legal information, or you are an individual consumer rather than a business or governmental entity, the site's described focus on enterprise end users suggests it is not aimed at that need.

The site does not publish pricing or fee information, so cost and engagement terms would need to be raised directly.
