Klimley Communications provides clients with an experienced point of view, expertise in the corporate and financial world, and creativity. The firm was originally founded to provide editorial services for money center banks such as J.P. Morgan and analyst programs for regional banks such as First Eastern Bank, in Wilkes-Barre, PA.

It soon expanded into other areas such as health care, employee benefits and insurance writing and editing. We also began producing special advertising sections for national business publications such as Business Week and Fortune.

Today, the firm continues to work in all these areas, providing clients with high-impact communications in print, on the internet or for voice.

April Klimley, founder of the firm, supervises all aspects of the client relationship. She works with a combination of on-site and virtual staff that includes editorial assistants, junior and senior writers, copyeditors and proofreaders. In addition, she can call on a number of top quality professionals in related fields such as graphic design, market research, advertising and executive recruiting for larger or more specialized assignments.
