A powerhouse Annapolis lobbying firm is going west.
Perry Jacobson will remain anchored in Maryland but announced Wednesday that it will open up a new office in Denver. The new office will be headed by Leroy M. Garcia, the former Colorado Senate president and a former official under President Joseph Biden.
Garcia will be a partner in the firm.
“Leroy was a natural addition as we looked to expand our services,” said Perry Jacobson Managing Partner Jonas Jacobson. “He’s highly respected in Colorado, and his national network through organizations like NCSL [National Conference of State Legislatures] and NALEO [National Association of Latino Elected and Appointed Officials] gives us the opportunity to offer our clients an even greater level of connectivity and expertise.
“This move isn’t about expanding just to have a presence in new states — it’s about strengthening our team with leaders who can help our clients accomplish their goals,” he said.
