Philip Beshara

Phil Beshara advises government contractors, defense technology companies, and emerging technology firms on high-stakes government affairs, regulatory, and legislative matters, working regularly with Capitol Hill, the White House, the Department of Defense, the State Department, and key national security agencies. Mr. Beshara represents leading U.S. defense contractors in bid protest litigation across federal courts and tribunals, with over 12 years of experience, and has been "instrumental" in guiding clients through high-stakes Federal investigations and Congressional hearings. Mr. Beshara has cultivated what has been described as a truly “Washington practice,” sought after for his political acumen and strong bipartisan relationships on Capitol Hill and in the Executive Branch by clients across the aerospace, defense technology, and FinTech industries. In 2024, Chambers USA profiled Mr. Beshara for his successful Federal Government Relations practice, highlighting one client's praise for Beshara as “a fantastic part of the team, tailoring his advice for us as a client” to achieve legislative solutions on Capitol Hill. Mr. Beshara's investigation work has included Congressional and Federal agency inquiries involving leading government contractors, as well as confidential internal-company investigations for global technology companies. Mr. Beshara helped lead the preparation of a CEO of a leading transportation company through multiple rounds of televised Congressional hearings that were favorably received by legislators and staff. Mr. Beshara also counsels allied-nation defense and technology companies on structuring their entry into the U.S. defense market — advising on entity formation, Foreign Ownership, Control, or Influence (FOCI) mitigation, CMMC cybersecurity readiness, facility clearance planning, and compliance frameworks for accessing controlled and classified U.S. government programs. This practice area has grown as Foreign Military Sales activity accelerates and allied-nation companies seek to participate in the U.S. defense industrial base.
