Managing Counsel, Government Relations
Eli Elbaum serves as Senior Counsel, Government Relations for Crown Castle. His role can best be described as a legal Swiss Army knife; advising Crown Castle’s external affairs, litigation, legislative, permitting and construction teams in their efforts to deploy telecommunications equipment and services throughout the country. Prior to joining Crown Castle, Eli practiced law in an industry-leading Long Island zoning and land use law firm, where he represented residential, commercial and telecommunications applicants before a wide array of municipal boards, as well as any subsequent litigation. Eli enjoys solving problems—simple or complex—and overall, getting things done.
