Both sides of the line.
Nine services across intelligence and communications – each scoped per matter, priced per engagement, and delivered under the Tearline Method. The intelligence work establishes what is true; the communications work decides what happens next. One connects the two.
01Screening Due Diligence
Registry, sanctions, litigation and deep media screen across English, Arabic and Amharic – read editorially, not keyword-matched. Written red-flag summary.
02Enhanced DD & Media Assessment
Corporate and beneficial-ownership mapping, litigation and regulatory history – anchored by a full narrative audit: what has been written, who wrote it, why, and what is likely to run next.
03Source-Validated EDD
Enhanced due diligence plus discreet human-source enquiries under the Tearline Method – evidence-tagged and defensible under scrutiny.
04Early-Warning Watch
Standing watchlist across entities, individuals or themes, with structured digest and escalation protocol. Arabic-language visibility typically runs 24–72 hours ahead of English coverage. Monthly reporting; three, six or twelve-month terms.
05 Reputation Audit & Response
A full audit of the public record – press, search, social, commentary – carried across the line into a structured response strategy: from correction of the record to search-visibility remediation, matched to what the evidence supports. The service that begins as intelligence and ends as communications.
06Strategic Counsel & Public Affairs
Direct counsel to boards, C-suites and ministers – sovereign, government and corporate communications in politically sensitive environments, grounded in a verified fact base rather than assembled around one.
07Narrative, Editorial & Placement
Speeches, op-eds, features and thought leadership – written by an editor, and placed through senior editorial relationships across London, the Gulf and East Africa.
08Media & Message Training
A stepped pathway from message development to full media training, tailored to the Gulf and available white-labelled – built by someone who spent thirty years on the other side of the interview.
09Crisis, Issues & Disputes
Crisis and issues management through to litigation-sensitive communications: evidence development, counterparty profiling and narrative strategy, scoped per matter. Every significant dispute is tried twice – once in the tribunal, once in public. The practice prepares clients for both.
