Lashly & Baer, P.C. represents public and
conduit borrowers in connection with the issuance of
tax-exempt bonds. We have extensive experience in working with
industrial development authorities, land clearance for
redevelopment authorities, planned industrial expansion
authorities, land reutilization authorities, local
development companies, and community development
agencies. Two of our attorneys are nationally recognized
in public finance, with listings in the Bond Buyers
Municipal Marketplace (the "Red Book"), and
one of our attorneys has been selected by his colleagues for
inclusion in The Best Lawyers in America.
We have undertaken a comprehensive
analysis of state and federal innovative financing
mechanisms available for infrastructure development
projects, including the United States Department of
Transportation's state infrastructure bank program,
federal tax credits, state tax credits available to
private entities contributing funds for infrastructure
development, tax increment financing, sales tax rebates,
tax abatement, and other programs to incentivize
infrastructure development.
