Firm Specialties:
In a state where part-time legislators don't have staff, lobbyists fill the void.

We provide public employees and elected officials with the information they need to make the right decisions. We help Idaho's elected officials meet their own goals in a way that helps effect positive outcomes for our clients and for the state of Idaho.

We draft legislation, facilitate strategy, meet directly with decision-makers, testify at hearings, prepare background materials and become content experts on key issues so that we can help you and your organization overcome obstacles or achieve new success.

Our knowledge of Idaho's local and state governments mean we are capable of tackling almost any issue. Our client experience and backgrounds give us deep and specialized content knowledge in natural resources, education, technology, procurement and telecom.
