Our Firm

We work with clients facing complex goals that can only be solved by a professional, comprehensive, sophisticated campaign. Our clients include major corporations, prominent elected officials and political candidates, educational institutions, non-profit organizations and interest and trade groups.

Whether you're a candidate running for office, an issue advocacy group facing political or legislative hurdles, a major corporation trying to overcome the challenges of breaking into a new market or anyone else who needs to achieve a complex goal involving government or politics – we can help figure out the right strategy to achieve your goal, put together the team needed to win, and then execute every phase of the operation, from overseeing lobbying to legal, public relations to polling, grassroots to grasstops, direct mail to digital, and beyond.

Examples of our work with corporate clients include Walmart’s efforts to enter the New York City market, AT&T’s efforts to enhance their New York profile, opening the first casino in New York City with Resorts World New YorkCamelot’s efforts to enter the U.S. market and become the private manager of state lotteries, CLEAR’s efforts to increase the efficiency of airport security, and  Taubman’s efforts to build a major new mall on Long Island.

Examples of our issue advocacy clients include StudentsFirst – former DC Education Chancellor Michelle Rhee’s national organization committed to pursuing comprehensive education reform across the country, Education Reform Now, a national and New York based education reform organization whose efforts led to the radical expansion of charter schools in New York, and the New York Organ Donor Network, which is working on a campaign to create an online registry for organ donations.

While our clients are diverse, our focus is always on working tirelessly to turn their complex goals into reality.
