"Over many years, I’ve worked with DHM on virtually every type of research as a client, a consultant, and a project partner in such wide-ranging sectors as utility taxes, land conservation community giving and the judiciary. Regardless of circumstance and without exception they've been deep thinkers from the start and deliver unimpeachable work, exceptional analysis, and invaluable insight."
