He said planning for the management transition has been underway for some time and the name change will help Pugh and Tiller bolster their reputations as leaders in the PR business.

The firm is relocating from Baltimore to Annapolis to increase its proximity to the Washington market.

Pugh will continue to lead the firm's tech practice, while Tiller is responsible for its insurance, employee benefits and commercial real estate practices.
