“SJL Government Affairs and Communications did a tremendous job in helping bring my foundation and lifelong dream to reality! The SJL Group was able to guide me through this process and help start the Sweet Feet Foundation. It has always been my dream to create this foundation, and SJL played a critical role in the development and launch with their many media connections. SJL’s expertise with the media helped bring attention to our foundation, which will help provide scholarships to underprivileged children.”
“Steve Lyons and his team are tenacious! The Wisconsin Chiefs of Police Association had attempted to pass legislation for the last 8 years that would allow the surviving spouses and children of officers killed in the line of duty to receive insurance from the state. Steve’s numerous relationships in the Capitol – and his unique ability to craft a powerful message to the public, media and to elected officials — were the key ingredients in getting the legislation signed into law.”
“The SJL Team did a masterful job in defending our membership (Wisconsin-based companies) from very harmful legislation. SJL’s strategic approach, work ethic, and strong relationships in and around the Capitol were key ingredients in our success. They have built a strong reputation for getting things done for their clients.”
“Steve Lyons served as spokesperson in a high profile case that received media attention from all over the world. He was extremely thorough, accessible and responsive—a seasoned professional. I was impressed with the dedication, energy, and heart he showed to this project, and his work in general.”
“Steve Lyons has great depth of knowledge on issues, and as an expert in political strategy, he can encapsulate a message both elected officials and the public can understand. No one works harder than Steve. That is why he and his clients are so successful in both the political arena and in the media. ”
“Steve Lyons has been a key factor in our success in passing several pieces of legislation that helped the business and technology sectors. He worked with the Wisconsin Technology Council in the passage of Act 41, creating Wisconsin’s first “fund of funds,” as well as bills to help all investors and young companies. When it comes to knowledge of the legislative process and advocating for Wisconsin’s emerging companies and investors, no one out-hustles Steve.”
“Steve Lyons is a tireless advocate who works side-by-side with and goes the extra mile for his clients; he knows his way around the Capitol and excels at deploying strategies customized to clients’ concerns.”
“When our 12 year-old daughter was brutally attacked by two of her classmates, it made national and international news. Our family was dealing with so many things but most importantly, the well being of our daughter. Steve Lyons was incredible in his interaction with the media. His media expertise allowed us to tell our story and give the world an insight into what we were dealing with as a family. Steve did hundreds of interviews on our behalf, which allowed us to focus on the physical and mental health of our daughter.”
“Politics impacts every facet of life from the quality of the roads our employees use to specific laws affecting our operations. Steve and the SJL team amplify my voice allowing me to provide input while remaining focused on business operations. They have been an enormous asset to our growth and operations. Steve is one of the good guys and a great investment.”
