Carr Thanks FCC Attorney Michael Nemcik for Serving as Acting Legal Advisor

WASHINGTON, July 18, 2022—Today, FCC Commissioner Brendan Carr issued the following statement thanking Michael Nemcik for serving as Acting Legal Advisor:

“I want to extend my sincere thanks to Michael for serving as Acting Legal Advisor in my office since April and for his continued service to the Commission as he returns to the Wireline Competition Bureau’s Competition Policy Division this week.  Michael has been an invaluable asset to my team while my Legal Advisor, Danielle Thumann, has been out on maternity leave.  He has tackled some complex issues for my office, including spearheading the review of robocalling and access arbitrage decisions.  Michael is a very talented and diligent lawyer, and the FCC is lucky that the agency will continue to benefit from his public service.  I have appreciated his advice and counsel the last three months.”

In April, Michael joined Commissioner Carr’s office from the Wireline Competition Bureau’s Competition Policy Division where he focuses on various robocall mitigation and numbering issues.  He served as Acting Legal Advisor during Danielle Thumann’s leave.  Before joining the FCC as an honors attorney, Michael served as an intern in Commissioner Carr’s office during law school.
