Do I need a lobbyist?

A:

A qualified, experienced, and assertive Texas lobbyist can help you and your organization in a wide variety of ways, depending on your wants and needs. While not every governmental issue requires a lobbyist or lobbying firm, we can let you know how our services may be able to assist in your cause and move your business forward. 

You may need a Texas lobbyist if: 

• You need representation. Lobbyists stand for your interests and communicate those interests to government officials when you can’t be there to do it in person. Lobbyists know who to speak to about specific issues and how to make certain that those issues have the attention and consideration of lawmakers and their staff. 
• You need to forge relationships. While you can lobby for your own causes without outside help, lobbyists have the unique advantage of knowing the right people—or knowing how to get into contact with the right people. If you want your issue heard by the right lawmakers, you have to be able to get a meeting with them. If you have a great message but don’t know how to spread it, you need someone with a great network. This is where lobbyists shine. 
• You need a strategy. A lobbyist isn’t just someone who communicates your needs and wants, he or she is someone who helps you understand the system and what you need to do to accomplish your goals. Your message won’t get through if you don’t have an effective plan before you even begin. 

At Posey Law Firm, we can help you understand the best plan for your organization or company—even if it does not involve our Texas lobbying services or government relations services. To learn more about how you can influence legislation and get your voice heard, call us today at 1-888-269-1962.
