Clients pursuing public finance and public law matters rely on our lawyers’ decades of experience and extensive knowledge to shepherd their projects to successful resolution. Forging strong long-term relationships with public and private entities and for-profit and nonprofit organizations, we collaborate closely with all involved parties to get the job done
Our lawyers’ in-depth familiarity with tax-advantaged financing, development incentives, tax credits, and tax increment finance sets us apart. Over many years we’ve advocated as bond, borrower’s, issuer’s, underwriter’s, lender’s and disclosure counsel on municipal debt issuances by or on behalf of public entities at all levels of government and private entities interacting with public bodies. The result is an ever-growing litany of thousands of successfully completed transactions worth tens of billions of dollars.
Keep all eyes on the prize: Bringing large public developments to fruition involves an array of participants and many moving parts. We represent underwriters, lenders, borrowers, brokerage houses, developers, governmental entities and state agencies and help them launch, orchestrate and finish complex projects. Our attorneys adeptly handle matters involving tax-exempt and taxable bond issuances, lines of credit, letters of credit and liquidity facilities. Clients turn to our team to guide them forward, craft creative strategies to overcome challenges and generate win-win outcomes. The resulting educational, cultural, hospitality, retail, transportation, and scientific and medical facilities enhance communities and the lives of the citizens who use them.
