Andrew N. Cove brings a rare vantage point to regulatory and criminal defense: he spent years as a Senior Assistant Attorney General for the State of Florida, prosecuting telemarketing fraud and personally authoring the proposal that became Florida's Telemarketing Act. He knows how government investigators think, how cases are built, and where they can be challenged — because he built them himself.
As Of Counsel at AMC Defense Law, Andrew applies that prosecutorial experience to defending companies and individuals facing federal and state enforcement actions, regulatory investigations, and white collar criminal charges. His practice spans TCPA compliance, FTC and FCC enforcement, telemarketing fraud defense, and complex regulatory litigation across the United States.
Andrew Cove's background as a government prosecutor is the foundation of his defense practice. Having enforced Florida's telemarketing laws from within the Attorney General's office, he understands the regulatory framework at its source — which provisions are most aggressively enforced, which arguments resonate with regulators, and where defense counsel can intervene to change outcomes.
Since entering private practice, Andrew has represented companies and individuals on compliance matters and related litigation in state and federal courts throughout the country. His clients range from telemarketing operations navigating state licensing requirements to businesses facing FTC civil investigative demands and DOJ criminal referrals. At AMC Defense Law, he extends that expertise to clients where regulatory exposure intersects with criminal risk.
Andrew N. Cove is licensed to practice law in Florida and has represented clients in state and federal courts throughout the United States.
Note: Andrew Cove practices in Florida state and federal courts and has handled matters in jurisdictions across the country through pro hac vice admission and co-counsel arrangements.
Andrew Cove has spent his career at the intersection of government enforcement and private defense. As a Senior Assistant AG, he prosecuted complex telemarketing fraud schemes and worked directly with Florida regulators to shape the laws that govern the industry today. That background gives him credibility with regulators and insight that most defense attorneys simply don't have.
As Of Counsel at AMC Defense Law, Andrew brings that experience to clients facing serious regulatory and criminal exposure. Whether the matter involves a federal investigation, a state enforcement action, or the need for proactive compliance counsel, he provides the kind of representation that comes from genuinely understanding both sides of the process.
