We have an active
practice in all phases of tax-exempt finance. We
have served in various private placement and public
offering transactions as bond counsel, underwriter's
counsel, lender's counsel, and counsel for the corporate
obligor or real estate developer.
The field of public finance has
changed dramatically in the past decade. The laws
governing tax exemption of debt instruments have become
increasingly intricate, and it has become necessary to
develop new approaches to structuring transactions in
order to deal with such complexities. Two of our
attorneys are nationally recognized in tax-exempt
finance, with listings in the Bond Buyers Municipal
Market Place (the "Red Book"), and one of our lawyers
has been selected by his peers for inclusion in The
Best Lawyers in America. We have earned a
reputation as an authority in the area of public finance
by keeping abreast of recent changes.
