NEW YORK, NY  — PRCG | Haggerty LLC is pleased to announce that, for the fourth straight year, the firm has been ranked as one of the leading public relations firms in the United States by Chambers and Partners, the premier worldwide legal directory ranking law firms and related services.

PRCG has now been ranked as a top firm every year since the list’s introduction in 2018.

According to the Chambers guide, PRCG is known for its “tailored counsel and bespoke PR responses” to legal-related public relations. The firm has also been lauded in the guide for the “enormous care, attention and passion” it brings to each of its assignments, as well as for the creation of “remarkable content” in support of sensitive legal and crisis communications issues.

PRCG CEO James F. Haggerty was also ranked as one of the top public relations professionals in the United States. The listing notes Haggerty is “the consummate professional” with “a great depth of understanding in litigation and legal matters.

“He has a superb sense of public relations and is extremely experienced in this kind of work,” the review added, with one reviewer stating “I wouldn’t want to be in any significant high-profile matter and not have the benefit of his counsel.”

The Chambers reviews have also recognized Haggerty’s landmark book on litigation communications, In the Court Of Public Opinion (ABA Books, 2019), now in its updated third edition, which is considered the leading book in the field. Haggerty’s latest book Chief Crisis Officer: Structure and Leadership for Effective Communications Response was published in paperback in 2019 and has been featured in the Harvard Business Review, FORTUNE magazine, and Entrepreneur.

In 2017, Haggerty was honored by PR News as one of its “50 Game-Changers of PR” for his landmark work as “a trailblazer of litigation PR.”
