Crisis Consulting
How you communicate during a crisis can make a big difference in the way your
company is perceived. From the earliest minutes of a developing crisis, your
handling of an event (i.e., accident, natural disaster) or a critical issue
(class action lawsuit, employment practices, etc.) will have a direct impact
on a firm’s employees, its reputation in the media, its customers and
many other key stakeholders.
Public scrutiny that arises from a significant disruption leaves no room for
error. A mishandled crisis can have a disastrous impact on a company and may
have lingering effects that may hurt employee morale, erode corporate culture
and offer competitors an opportunity to increase market share at your expense.
Tucker/Hall senior counselors are accredited by the Institute for Crisis Management
and the Harvard University Law School Program on Negotiated Settlements. We
emphasize strategies that will help your company emerge from a crisis with its
reputation intact.
Our Clients Include:
Arthur Andersen LLP (Florida/Caribbean)

Hoffman LaRoche Pharmaceuticals
Public Involvement
Government agencies and companies that attempt to "sell" interest
groups on large public projects risk public failure. On the other hand, organizations
that use carefully crafted public participation programs to achieve results
often encounter less opposition from special interest groups.
Tucker/Hall’s public involvement specialists are among the best in North
America. We have achieved positive results in a number of sensitive siting projects
involving major transportation corridors, nuclear power plants and oil wells.
Our counselors have facilitated community visioning processes to build consensus
among diverse groups on sensitive issues affecting the environment and water
resources.
We not only believe in using a public involvement process achieve results,
we also strongly believe in the long-term benefits of such a process. Any firm
can set up public meetings. Our approach stresses achieving clients’ objectives
by engaging a community in constructive problem-solving.
