Since 1979 Capitol Strategies Group (CSG) has set the standard for professional counsel in California government relations, contract procurement, and association management. Representing a broad client base before the legislature, regulatory agencies, and the executive branch requires that the CSG team understand complex statewide developments and provide context for effective action on behalf of each client. Additionally, we leverage our team's long-term experience in local and statewide campaigns to provide strategic recommendations and political advice. Our firm represents clients before the Governor, his administration, each constitutional officer, the state legislature, and almost every California state agency.
Firm Specialties:
CSG's services include state contract procurement, bureaucratic problem solving, and a full suite of legislative advocacy activities. Our services are tailored to meet a client's specific needs and range from monitoring, research, and consultation to direct and indirect lobbying. CSG also manages multiple trade associations and this work frequently requires the organization of large meetings and legislative visits.
