About the firm
Decades of relationships. A record of results.
R. L. Steinman and Associates has been at the forefront of multistate governmental affairs since its founding — building the coalitions, navigating the legislatures, and delivering the outcomes that matter to our clients.
Our story
Built on trust. Sustained by results.
For over 20 years, we have helped businesses, trade associations, and advocacy organizations build the coalitions and public support needed to advance complex state and federal policy initiatives.
Our work centers on transforming business relationships into authentic grassroots engagement. We help clients mobilize employees, customers, vendors, community leaders, and other stakeholders to demonstrate broad-based constituent support to policymakers in a credible, constructive, and persuasive way.
Over the course of years, we have led advocacy and coalition-building efforts in more than 30 states on issues ranging from taxation, healthcare, energy, agriculture, and regulatory policy to international trade and economic development. We believe policymakers respond best when they hear directly from the people affected by their decisions. Our role is helping organizations identify those voices, organize them effectively, and turn them into meaningful influence.
A Commitment to Client Confidentiality
Much of our work involves sensitive public policy, legislative, regulatory, and community engagement matters. For that reason, R.L. Steinman & Associates generally does not publicly identify current or former clients or discuss specific engagements without their express permission. We believe the trust our clients place in us is one of our most valuable assets.
