The professionals at our Firm represent over three decades of experience as bond counsel in complex financial transactions. Our transactional experience has been enhanced by the diversity of the financial transactions in which we regularly participate. Additionally, our professionals have been instrumental in drafting legislation to address the financing needs of various state and municipal entities and to create financing solutions to problems faced by such entities.
