GOVERNMENT RELATIONS

Make no mistake – decisions made by the government can and will affect the economy and in turn the direction and machinations of your business or organization.

Statutory and regulatory law, as well as public funding and appropriations, can have positive and/or negative impacts on your goals and priorities. It is therefore critical that your company or organization understands how government, the law, and business interact in order to make decisions that will grow your business or achieve strategic goals.  

Whether it be federal, state or municipal governmental bodies, our firm provides a forum and access for your company or organization by facilitating an audience with public policy makers to ensure that you are heard, understood, and your priorities are acted upon. After initial consultation, we develop a carefully tailored plan to suit your needs.

We have worked with clients on legislative and regulatory proposals, compliance issues, procurement matters, and issue management. Our clients benefit from our ability to anticipate and successfully react to trends in their business.

The decision to create a new business or corporation is an extremely exciting one that should not be taken lightly. Proper compliance with local, state and federal law is critical to the organization's foundation and success. Our specialty is advising clients on the most appropriate entity for their respective situations and then implementing that choice in an expeditious and affordable manner. For a host of good reasons, clients usually conduct their business in one of the flowing formats: C Corporation, S Corporation, Limited Liability Company, Limited Liability Partnership, Non-Profit Corporation (including “501 (c)(3)” charitable designation by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS).

We all have a story, and in order to successfully sell that story it must reach the right audience and must be persuasive. This is particularly important in today’s global connectivity where information is disseminated in virtual real time. Whether you are a sole proprietor or a global corporation, the bottom line is that the right people must hear the right story about you and your organization. The alternative is to allow competitors and others to influence, and possibly define, who you are and what you do. Rather than being placed into a reactionary mode, our clients take a proactive approach to ensure that their good reputation is self-determined.
