Crisis Communications for the Corporate World's Toughest Moments.
When a crisis hits, every minute counts. We're already prepared.
Crisis Communications
When an incident strikes — an accident, a lawsuit, a data breach — we step in immediately with a clear communications strategy to protect your brand, control the narrative, and keep your leadership ahead of the story.
Media & Litigation PR
From courtroom battles to regulatory scrutiny, we manage the court of public opinion so your legal team can focus on the courtroom. We have deep relationships with media and know how to keep sensitive matters from becoming damaging headlines.
Preparedness & Training
The best crisis response is one you've already rehearsed. We work with your team before anything goes wrong — building response playbooks, running tabletop exercises, and making sure your leadership is ready to speak when it matters most.
Decades of Experience.
Seasoned Counsel When the Stakes Are Highest.
What Sets Barkett Crisis Consulting Apart.
Not every firm has seen what we've seen. Not every counselor has done what we've done.
Proven in the Field
Our experience isn't theoretical. We've guided clients through NTSB investigations, high-profile litigation, corporate mergers, and international media firestorms — and we've come out the other side with our clients' reputations intact.
A Network That Works for You
Our relationships with major insurance carriers, law firms, private equity groups, and corporate executives give clients immediate access to the right people at the right moment.
Discretion as a Standard
Crisis communications demands confidentiality. We operate with the same discretion your legal team expects, and our clients trust us precisely because we've never violated that standard.
Ready Before You Need Us
The firms that fare best in a crisis are the ones that prepared before it happened. We build that readiness into every client relationship from day one.
