Matt Harrison
MANAGING DIRECTOR
Matt has more than a decade of experience consulting on high-stakes litigation and business situations at law firms and strategic communications consultancies.
In his previous role as an in-house consultant at a commercial litigation law firm, Matt developed a critical understanding of the litigation process and experienced how diverse skill sets and multiple disciplines work together to create successful advocacy outcomes.
Matt believes that the key to successful advocacy begins with developing a complete command of the facts and a thorough assessment of the situation at hand and leveraging diverse perspectives to develop creative solutions.
His experience includes supporting public companies, private firms, and executives and high-profile individuals at critical moments when their freedom to operate is threatened, including during high stakes litigation challenges, arbitrations, internal and government investigations, and congressional oversight hearings.
Outside of work, Matt enjoys an active lifestyle. He has completed the New York City Marathon, several half marathons and always has an endurance race on the calendar to look forward to.
