Our Services

Success in lobbying comes from using precisely the right combination of strategies at precisely the right time. In identifying that unique combination for each client, we draw on a range of Hodes & Landy strengths:

• Strategy development. After assessing your organization's goals and objectives, we formulate a thorough strategy and message to achieve success and enhance your credibility with state agencies, legislators, and the executive branch.
• Direct advocacy. As part of executing the strategy, we facilitate direct contact with key decision makers, educate lawmakers and senior staff about your issues, and work with regulatory agencies to effect policy.
• Legislation. We develop viable legislative solutions, drafting bill language, proposing amendments, and shepherding legislation through the entire process from introduction to enactment.
• Budget items. We work with officials in the legislative and executive branches to secure state budget allocations and member items.
• Regulatory issues. Our comprehensive regulatory assistance includes providing public comment on proposed regulations and advising clients on regulatory and compliance issues. We guide clients seeking licensure, certification and other State authorizations from the application stage to final approval.
• Coalition development. Hodes & Landy develops grassroots campaigns and forges coalitions among clients and other stakeholders.
• Legislative monitoring. Because things change so quickly in Albany, we continuously monitor, analyze, and communicate legislative and agency activity in areas that affect your interests.
• Government bids and contracts. We provide prompt notice of state government bids, grants, and requests for proposal, as well as help with funding applications and procurement contracts.
• Meeting representation. Our professionals represent you at budget and legislative hearings, public hearings, legislative committee and task force meetings, and industry association meetings.
• Association management. Hodes & Landy provides industry associations with professional guidance and support, including full government affairs representation, strategy development, and member communication.
