Tribal lobbying scandal hurts ex-Abramoff firm


The Jack Abramoff tribal lobbying scandal has hurt the law and lobbying firm of Greenberg Traurig.

The firm, which employed Abramoff, was fourth in revenues in 2003. But last year, the firm dropped to 16th, The Hill newspaper reported.

Many of the firm's lobbyists have left in the wake of the scandal, the paper said.
