STATEWIDE REACH
From the North Country to New York City.
From Western NY to Montauk.
Years inside state government taught us that every region sees policy differently. We bring that statewide perspective, and the credibility that comes from working with both sides of the aisle, to every engagement.
Three disciplines. One trusted advisor.
Gaming Legislation Expertise
Know the stakes.
We map the downstream impact of every gaming bill on your operations, revenue, and market position before it moves.
Budget & Appropriations Advisory
Follow the money.
We translate state budgets, tax proposals, and appropriations for their effect on your revenue and strategic position.
Government Relations Strategy
Shape the conversation.
We build the engagement strategy for legislators, staff, and agencies, from committee through the final vote.
THE LEGISLATIVE YEAR
Every season carries its own stakes.
JANUARY
The Executive Budget
The Governor’s proposal sets the agenda for the year. We read every line for what it means for your business.
FEBRUARY – MARCH
Hearings and Negotiation
Budget hearings and negotiations shape the final terms. We prepare the testimony and written submissions that carry your position.
APRIL
The Enacted Budget

The Close of Session
Bills move quickly as session ends. We track every measure that touches your operations through the final vote.
