Public affairs & political risk
For brands and people pulled into a political fight they did not choose.
Issues that used to be private are now political. We help organizations and individuals manage the moment they become part of the public argument — and, in our advocacy work, we press the case for Americans wrongfully held abroad.
A boycott, a hearing, a campaign with a political edge: these are not ordinary public-relations problems. They move fast, they attract opportunists, and the usual playbook can make them worse.
We have defended organizations under coordinated attack and run public campaigns that reached the people with the power to act. See our results, or read how we work for families with a loved one detained abroad.
What this looks like in practice
- A clear read of who is driving the issue, and why
- Messaging that holds up under political pressure
- Coalition and third-party engagement
- Press and public-square strategy
- For families of the wrongfully detained: a public campaign built around the person
When the fight is political, neutrality is not an option — and recklessness is not a strategy.
