Our Work With Crisis Communications

  • Guided a mid-sized Wisconsin municipality through a ransomware attack that disabled city networks. Kane developed crisis protocols, trained leaders, managed public sentiment and minimized media fallout—earning recognition from the municipality’s legal counsel as the best PR agency they’d worked with.

  • Partnered with a large urban school district during a financial reporting crisis that led to leadership resignations. Kane monitored and corrected media errors, provided rapid response messaging and supported the district in restoring credibility with parents, staff and policymakers.

  • Supported organizations experiencing sudden resignations or leadership controversies by equipping spokespersons with clear, confident messaging that reassured employees, media and community stakeholders.

  • Provided counsel for clients navigating lawsuits, compliance issues, and regulatory scrutiny. Kane’s role included developing holding statements, aligning legal and communications teams, and maintaining consistent, transparent communication with stakeholders.

  • Crafted communications for incidents involving workplace injuries, employee loss and internal controversies. Our approach balanced compassion with transparency, protecting both organizational reputation and stakeholder trust.
