---

Trident DMG is a full-service public relations and strategic communications firm headquartered in Washington, D.C. Founded in 2016 by senior media professionals and attorneys with decades of experience managing high-stakes political and corporate crises, the firm operates at the intersection of law, politics, and communications — a positioning that places it in a narrower peer set than the broader corporate PR field.

Leadership and Founding DNA

Trident DMG was built around a specific pattern: the firms that call for help mid-crisis need counsel who can read a subpoena, a proxy fight, a regulatory inquiry, and a media narrative in the same conversation. The founding team combined litigation, government, and press credentials rather than assembling the typical media-relations bench. That mix defines the client work.

Core Practice Areas

Trident DMG's service mix maps to five distinct disciplines:

• Strategic communications — reputation, market positioning, competitive narrative, thought leadership programming. Deep client immersion to master the essentials of a business before writing anything for market.
• Public affairs — communications campaigns aimed at decision-makers in Washington, state capitals, and abroad. Grounded in an operational understanding of how public policy actually moves.
• Litigation PR — communications strategy for clients battling legal opponents, investigators, or regulators. Defining the case in public, defeating adversarial narrative, persuading stakeholders outside the courtroom.
• Crisis management — political counsel and decisive communications for public figures, corporations, and non-profits at the moment the story is breaking. The firm combines legal, political, and media expertise as a single response function.
• Tech PR and startup PR — targeted at emerging companies, private equity investors, venture capital, and founders needing thought leadership and press credibility to hit short-term milestones and long-term positioning goals.

Client Base

Trident DMG has worked with congressional leaders and politicians in the United States and abroad, heads of state, corporate leaders and Fortune 500 companies, universities, high-net-worth families and individuals, and national news media outlets. The client mix reflects the firm's proximity to Washington power structures and its willingness to take on the assignments other firms decline.
