Di:
William K. Lane III, General Counsel of the Department of the Air Force, joins the Georgetown Law Federalist Society to discuss what it means to serve as a lawyer for the federal government.
Lane reflects on how his military service shaped his approach to leadership, explains who the “client” is for a government lawyer, and discusses the challenge of advising policymakers without becoming a policymaker himself. He also describes coordinating with the Department of Justice, the JAG Corps, the Department of War, and the White House; working with career attorneys; and the importance of finding ways to help clients achieve their objectives.
The conversation also covers the distinct roles of Air Force and Space Force counsel, defense acquisition and bid protests, the growing role of artificial intelligence in the Department of War, and Lane’s unusual additional role as administrator of Wake Island. Lane closes by discussing his work on Justice Neil Gorsuch’s confirmation and offering advice to students interested in judicial clerkships.
Recorded October 6, 2026, at Georgetown University Law Center.
