HartmanCosco is a leading lobbying firm that provides sound strategy, policy, and advocacy services for a broad range of clients. Our relationships, rooted in trust and developed over time, position us to help policymakers understand the importance of our clients' goals.
Without insider access, the right relationships, and a presence in Charleston, most organizations are reacting to decisions instead of shaping them.
Let's talk about your situationWest Virginia government is relationship driven. Without established relationships and knowledge about how government functions, organizations struggle to navigate the maze of legislative sessions, procurement cycles, and government processes that determine results.
Your organization loses ground when decision-makers don't understand the importance of your challenges and needs. You need someone who can articulate, defend, and safeguard your perspective at every level of government.
Without clear strategy, defined goals, and disciplined communication, advocacy becomes noise. Getting your message to the right decision-makers at the right time requires relationships that take years to build.
Established in 2011, HartmanCosco quickly became one of West Virginia's top government relations firms. We are a team of seasoned professionals committed to a client-first philosophy. We engage decision-makers and build strong channels of communication between our clients and government leaders.
Our team's diverse backgrounds and experience ensure that our clients maintain a balanced perspective while navigating complicated government rules — both written and unwritten. Multinational companies, statewide associations, and nonprofit organizations trust HartmanCosco because of our proven record of success and commitment to understanding our clients' needs.
We connect clients with state and federal government officials whose policies affect clients’ business, organization, and important projects. We influence public opinion, educate decision-makers, and communicate clearly and effectively through both traditional and modern media.
