The Vectre Corporation was established in 1989 as a subsidiary of the Virginia law firm of Hazel & Thomas, P.C., with offices in Northern Virginia and Richmond, to provide necessary, highly-specialized non-legal services in the area of government relations. Hazel & Thomas merged with ReedSmith LLP in 1999. The firm has grown to the point that today it is widely acknowledged for its expertise and communication abilities by federal, state and local government officials as one of its leading government relations resources.
In 1992, The Vectre Corporation expanded its range of services when it became the Virginia member of The Advocacy Group (TAG), an international network of law and government relations firms providing advocacy services at State Capitols throughout the United States, Latin America and Europe. In 1995, The Vectre Corporation became an independent firm, owned by members of its Board of Directors.
Today, The Vectre Corporation is headquartered at 707 East Main Street, an easy walk from the Virginia's Capitol Square. The firm includes six full-time professional government affairs advocates with more than eight decades of cumulative experience. The Vectre Corporation has expanded by opening an office in Northern Virginia.
Firm Specialties:
Vectre's areas of special expertise involve both traditional lobbying as well as grassroots and grass-tops lobbying. Vectre brings to any project strong experience in winning legislative battles on behalf of diverse corporate interests.
