What Patrick B. Jenkins & Associates does

Patrick B. Jenkins & Associates (PBJ&A) is a privately held, full-service government and community relations consulting firm headquartered in New York City with a regional office in Albany. Founded by Patrick B. Jenkins in 2008–2009, the firm represents clients throughout New York State across three core service lines: Political Consulting (campaign management, polling, message strategy), Community Relations (stakeholder engagement, media relations, governmental hearing preparation), and Strategic Advisement (business plan development, market assessment, growth strategy). The firm serves a heterogeneous mix of corporate clients in gaming, transportation, healthcare, telecommunications, infrastructure, and technology, as well as nonprofit advocacy organizations and political campaigns.

The firm's value proposition rests on the political and professional networks of its senior team, including former congressional staff, lawyers, and former New York City and State government officials. PBJ&A has developed particular domain expertise in New York's gaming policy, having supported legislation from casino licensing to the legalization of mobile sports betting. The business model is professional services: consulting fees negotiated on a per-engagement or retainer basis, with senior leadership directly managing client relationships. The firm differs from larger multi-state lobbying shops by maintaining a boutique, founder-led structure with a limited headcount of 1–10 employees and a sharply regional focus on New York State.

PBJ&A does not operate a proprietary technology platform; its deliverables are advisory, strategic, and relational rather than technology products. The firm is privately held by the founder with no disclosed institutional investment, no parent company, and no subsidiaries. Revenue is not publicly disclosed, and the firm does not publish pricing for its services.
