As the “go-to” crisis management firm, our first priority is to protect your business, your non-profit, and your reputation.

We represent attorneys, companies, non-profits, executives, and public figures in sensitive situations. Professionally and personally. Because you can’t turn back time™.

We regularly partner with Am Law 200 firms (including some in the Top 10) and the Big Four accounting firms to manage the message for iconic brands that people around the world use daily.

Contrary to popular belief, many clients come to us for things that aren’t media disasters. Some of our greatest successes are ones you never read or hear about.

We bring you more than half a century of expertise working under intense deadlines to resolve issues both in and outside the media. Always in the strictest of confidence. Often without fingerprints.
