  “These people know how to win.” Scott Mitchell & Associates client.

Located in America’s Heartland, Scott Mitchell & Associates is recognized by many of our nation’s top companies, trade associations, law firms and trial consultants as one of America’s top problem solving strategic communications firms in the world.

To understand who we are, it is best to know what we are not. We’re not a full service public relations firm, advertising agency, law firm marketing service or research company, and we don’t want to be.

What we do, and do well, is solve problems in the public arena. Our clients have come to view us as sort of a ‘general contractor’ for solving high stakes, high profile problems in all areas of public affairs and in the legal field.

Our pioneering combination of political campaign tools, public affairs techniques and litigation communications strategies makes us unique. That’s why our firm in Oklahoma City is sought out by some of the nation’s most influential companies, trade associations and law firms.

Our 20-year list of achievements demonstrates that we are among the best at devising communication strategies that win in Washington D.C., in state capitols, before regulatory authorities and in the courtroom, anytime, anyplace. Our client list is a Who’s Who of American business and politics, and our successes are recognized as landmark accomplishments in American public affairs: remember the come from behind defeat of the Clinton health care proposal?

We’re a boutique-sized firm located in Oklahoma City, but we’ve performed critical services for some of America’s top industries while maintaining pro bono services for dozens of charities in Washington D.C., Oklahoma, Texas and Florida.

You may be surprised to learn that Scott Mitchell & Associates was the first firm in America to offer the nation’s top lawyers and law firms litigation communications techniques for Continuing Legal Education (CLE) credit. We’re steeped in the academic aspects of litigation communications. Our CLE courses also include ethics instruction, and we are communications coaches to dozens of the top trial consultants in America. When it comes to litigation communications, we are in fact one of the most experienced, most educationally qualified communications firm in America.

Our credentials and experience are why legal luminaries, ranging from plaintiff’s lawyers as diverse as the Castano group to the largely defense-oriented firms in State Law Resources and State Capitol Law Group have utilized our services. In fact, by 1998, we had worked with dozens of lawyers listed in the ABA’s Top 100.

We have also handled crisis communications related to the highest profile litigation and public affairs, from the tobacco wars, phen-fen lawsuits, pharmaceutical conflicts, environmental skirmishes to front page issues that continue to arise from the 2000 Florida election recount. Our consultants include crisis managers that held key positions in both the 1995 Murrah Building bombing and the September 11th 2001 New York City terrorist attacks. Today, these individuals play key roles in our risk management and preparedness training division.

And one more thing about crisis communications and risk management: we do more than talk the talk, we walk the walk. Our President is partner in one of the country’s fastest growing business risk management companies.

We’ve perfected many advocacy techniques that allow corporations, trade associations and law firms to win, from the development of widespread use of modern coalition building techniques to the now widespread practice of third-party ally development and management for ‘sanitary advocacy’ message delivery. With our strategic partnership with Phase 2 Development, our strategic communications practice now includes innovative and seamless web development methods, transforming our imaginative strategies into practical applications that allow clients’ messages to be heard regardless of media treatment.

We’re Scott Mitchell & Associates, and we’d like to help you be our next satisfied client.
