Who We Are

Advanced Practical Solutions was founded in 2002 as a full-service, bipartisan, governmental affairs consulting firm. Our firm has grown from a single client at inception to an aggressive firm currently representing several diverse clients.

We believe that it is important for each of our clients to have a clear, written, and mutually agreed upon statement of the governmental objectives the client wants to accomplish. One of our first tasks is to meet with our clients and develop a set of written governmental affairs priorities. This guides our activities and alerts us to issues which we need to pay primary attention to for our clients.

If It Happens In Springfield, We Are There

Advanced Practical Solutions monitors legislative hearings and sessions, tracks legislation and provides immediate feedback to our clients. We attend all of the committee meetings that may be relevant to our clients and monitor each legislative session in full.

Our firm is active in hands-on lobbying for and with our clients. This includes one-on-one meetings with members of the Executive Branch, Legislators, and staff. This may also include testifying before committees or working with our clients to develop testimony for presentation. We maintain access with key decision makers on your behalf.

Customized Representation

Advanced Practical Solutions also provides periodic detailed reporting to our clients. We do not take a one-size fits all approach to this. We may provide detailed written reports on a schedule desired by the client and also accommodate telephone, fax, or email briefings for single or multiple parties. We tailor our approach to meet the needs of our clients.
