About

Provided by Bowles Rice LLP

Bowles Rice lawyers handle all aspects of public finance involving traditional issuers of municipal securities such as state agencies, cities, counties, townships, schools, colleges and universities, as well as public service districts (PSDs). 

With substantial experience in all phases of economic development, municipal bonds and public finance, we have worked as Bond Counsel in both tax-exempt and taxable bond issues.

We also have represented issuers, bond trustees, institutional bond purchasers, credit enhancement providers and program sponsors. These other bond issues have included: public building construction and improvements; school bonds; bonds for higher education facilities; refunding bonds, and much more.

Additionally, we have worked with two West Virginia authorities (Hospital Finance Authority and Parkways, Economic Development and Tourism Authority) in successfully establishing the initial bonding programs under their enabling legislation. Our experience also includes a wide variety of financing structures, ranging from traditional bonds to more complex Certificates of Participation (COPs) finances and sales-leaseback transactions including leveraged leasing programs.

The knowledgeable and experienced Bowles Rice lawyers working on Municipal Bond and Public Finance projects have, collectively, nearly 100 years of relevant experience and Bowles Rice is recognized in The Bond Buyer’s Municipal Marketplace (the “Red Book”).
