They have a deep understanding of the legislative and regulatory environment and have consistently delivered results on tough issues.

  • Sullivan & LeShane has been a valued partner of ours for many years. They have the relationships and know-how to navigate complex legislative issues and deliver results on behalf of their client. With decades of experience, their entire team is committed to truly understanding the issues that matter to us most and working collaboratively to educate legislators and develop public policy solutions. It's clear that they are well-respected in the halls of the capitol, and they have been an absolute pleasure to work with over the years. - Nick Martin, Director of Public Affairs and Communication, Coca-Cola Beverages Northeast
  • While SHI has been a vendor, working with the State of Connecticut since 1991, we engaged Sullivan & LeShane in 2018. We were looking to get better aligned with the State, and to navigate some roadblocks we had been encountering. It has been a great relationship, and we have had many "wins" that have helped advance SHI strategically within the State. The information and experience that Mike and his team lend to us is invaluable. - Barbara West, Regional Director, SHI

    • 13 years of experience in contract lobbying; three years of experience in state and municipal government.
