Our Services
We protect and advance our clients’ interests by telling their story and ensuring that their voice is heard.
Lobbying isn’t what it used to be. That’s a good thing. It’s about more than access. At Advocacy Solutions, we combine deep public policy expertise with smart, sophisticated strategies aimed at reaching the right policymakers at the municipal, state, and federal levels.
We take the time to understand the issue at hand, combine years of experience navigating the halls of government with real-time analysis of the political, social, and economic dynamics of the day, and execute strategies that are successful for both short- and long-term success.
Policy tracking and analysis
Our team of experts closely monitors new legislation and policies at hand, and tracks and reports key developments. We work strategically to determine the most effective response to protect and advance our clients’ interests.
