Adam Gendelman brings more than 15 years of experience at the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) to his regulatory and litigation practice, where he advises nuclear energy companies, fuel cycle operators, and technology developers on regulatory enforcement, licensing disputes, and compliance strategy. His career at the NRC included leadership roles overseeing nuclear materials regulation, fuel cycle oversight, waste management and disposal, as well as security and enforcement matters. Adam also served as a health physicist, project manager, and export licensing officer, giving him a deep understanding of how the agency approaches oversight, investigations, and contested proceedings. Adam led major cases before the Atomic Safety and Licensing Board and the NRC Commission, and he draws on both legal training and a graduate degree in health physics to bridge the gap between technical and regulatory risk.

Adam counsels clients navigating the full lifecycle of nuclear regulatory matters, from uranium mining and milling and new reactor and fuel facility licensing, to decommissioning, spent fuel management, and waste disposition. At the NRC, Adam held progressively senior roles advising on first-of-a-kind licensing issues in uranium recovery, enrichment, and fuel fabrication projects, brokering interagency agreements on overlapping oversight responsibilities, and integrating complex technical and legal questions into holistic regulatory approaches. He also served as the IAEA expert in decommissioning oversight for the recent mission to the People’s Republic of China.

Adam’s combination of government litigation experience, technical credentials in health physics, and deep familiarity with NRC processes positions him to provide practical, informed counsel to clients operating in and entering the nuclear energy sector.
