About
Sitrick And Company was founded in 1989 by Michael S. Sitrick, the firm’s Chairman & CEO. Nearly every year since its founding, the firm has been ranked as one of the top strategic communications companies in the nation. Our clients include public and private companies as well as government agencies and high-profile individuals, ranging from financier Thomas H. Lee to rocker Tommy Lee. Today, Sitrick And Company has approximately 50 people working out of five offices: Los Angeles, New York, Miami, San Francisco and Silicon Valley.
From the onset, Sitrick And Company has focused on corporate, financial, transactional and crisis communications. Although we have an extensive and successful practice in each of the foregoing areas, our firm is best known for its work in sensitive make-or-break situations. Whether helping a client with an IPO, a merger or a criminal indictment, we work to ensure that all of our clients’ key audiences are covered. This can include such groups as the media (digital and traditional), employees, the investment community, customers, suppliers and government officials.
Matters with which we have been involved span the spectrum. In addition to such corporate areas as earnings releases and reputation management, they include business litigation, state and federal government investigations, criminal indictments, insurance fraud, labor issues (including emergency executive transitions, sexual harassment and discrimination cases), fraudulent conveyance cases, trade disputes, mergers and acquisitions, proxy contests, withhold vote contests, product recalls, environmental issues and product liability claims, financial restatements and write-downs, and in and out of court restructurings. (The firm has been involved in more than 300 Chapter 11 cases since its founding and more than 100 out of court restructurings.)
Our executives are broadly experienced professionals with both media and senior-level corporate experience. Senior executives have served as officers and directors of both private and publicly-traded companies and as reporters, editors and producers of such news organizations as the Wall Street Journal, New York Times, Los Angeles Times, San Jose Mercury News, Detroit Free Press, Chicago Tribune, Bloomberg, Dow Jones, Miami Herald, NBC Television, the China Morning News and various Latin American media.
Our digital media team is led by two executives who directed online media initiatives for the Los Angeles Times and Premiere Radio, one of the nation’s top syndicators of radio programs. The firm’s executive rank also includes former litigators and business executives.
