Public Policy Consulting


Griffin & Strong, P.C. is a prominent force in policy consulting and disparity research analysis at a national level. Our findings lead to tangible results, setting us apart as the sole law firm equipped to address the issues identified in disparity research studies with actual legislation.

GSPC’s public policy consulting division is uniquely proficient in every stage and aspect of policy research and application, from analysis to drafting legislation, to program implementation. We apply a hands-on approach to the programs we design, and foster a practical learning environment for staff, ensuring seamless integration of new functions, tasks, and work processes arising from legislative changes spurred by our studies.

Experienced and Skilled

Attorney Rodney K. Strong procured and managed one of the first disparity studies in 1989, following the city of Richmond v. J.A. Croson Co.488U.S.469, the U.S. Supreme Court decision that made these studies necessary.

As a law firm, our primary expertise lies in effectively countering any legal challenges that may arise against our new legislative initiatives. In order to sustain success with high-quality disparity studies and quantitative research, we must endeavor to understand the specific legal and political environment of each government client. As a result, we apply an open and flexible approach to develop policy options that are able to survive intense legal and political scrutiny.
