A longtime client decided that it wanted TMPR to take a more active role and instead of legislative monitoring and consulting, we were tasked with active advocacy – lobbying for wholesale change of the section in the state’s Code of Laws that governs this client’s industry.

TMPR has been fortunate to build a professional network that helps us either be a part of or allows us to create a complete team to work toward our clients’ objectives. We received a phone call from one of those strategic partners in October 2014 informing us of a city’s desire to create a new […]
