Cook Government Advisors works with LegisGroup, a full-service lobbying firm, to assist clients with their lobbying needs at the Indiana General Assembly or within state agencies. From monitoring legislation, playing defense, initiating legislation, or working with the executive branch, we can assist you in navigating the Indiana statehouse.
Serving as a local elected official is a daunting task. Having the assistance of experienced legal counsel in the unique area of municipal law is a must for locally elected bodies. Whether it is implementing new ordinances and resolutions or interpreting state laws and rules, Cook Government Advisors stands ready to help local units.
Depending on the nature of your special project, Cook Government Advisors may be able to assist with our public relations, analytical and legal expertise. We specialize in compiling data and preparing detailed reports, overhauling sections of your local code of ordinances, working on projects that require bringing ideas together and facilitating group meetings, preparing a "Plan of Action" for most any type of government-related problem or issue, creating short-term and long-term written plans for the future, and assisting with crisis situations where communication is key.
Working in the public sector is a lot different than working in the private sector. Laws and regulations govern each step that a local official, staffer or appointee makes. Penalties for violations of laws relating to conflict of interest, internal controls, open door violations, etc. have serious ramifications. Let Cook Government Advisors provide a training package designed specifically for your unit.
Thank you for taking time to visit the Cook Government Advisors website! I am proud to have launched my own legal / consulting firm and look forward to assisting you in navigating Indiana state and local government. I've worked in this area for years and have accumulated a wealth of knowledge and experience. From taxation, redevelopment, open door law, on-board training and special projects, I would be delighted to assist you!
