I tell you who they are, how they work and what they are likely to do next. One written brief on your case.
Privileged attorney work product. Rule 3.6 compliant.
The outside firm or the in-house lead on the account, and the named people.
Past matters where the same firm or the same people ran a defendant’s communications.
The moves they have used before, in the order they usually use them.
What that playbook points to, given where your case stands today.
I name a firm or a person on your case when the public record shows it: a press contact on a release, a spokesperson quoted in coverage, a firm announcement or a court filing. Each name is marked confirmed or indicated, with the source beside it.
Where the record does not show who it is, I say so and describe the playbook in use.
I do. I have spent 29 years on the plaintiff side watching the national crisis communications firms work. I know how each one operates.
I wrote the book on it: OUTGUNNED: The Defense Communications Machine That Is Winning Your Cases Before You File.
The brief follows the free Defense Check and the free Partner Briefing. One document, one case, a fixed scope agreed before I begin. I am retained through counsel and work at counsel’s direction. In MDL and mass tort matters, I can be paid from the common benefit fund under the court’s cost order.
