Our nationally recognized public finance practice is one of the largest and most experienced in the United States. We provide advice on major public financings throughout Texas and across the nation. Year over year, we rank among the leading public finance practices based on the number of deals and their size.
Our lawyers are highly adept in assisting clients with traditional and highly structured project finance conduit transactions involving airports, tollways, housing, industrial development, hospitals and healthcare facilities, retirement and nursing care facilities, higher education, private and public secondary schools, cultural and arts organizations, sports facilities, not-for-profit organizations, water and waste disposal facilities and state agencies.
The diversity and depth of our team helps ensure that our clients receive the benefits of innovative best practices on every transaction. We structure finance options for our clients, such as traditional fixed rate new money transactions or complex project financings. We also help issuers take advantage of tax-exempt or tax-advantaged debt. We help configure tax-advantaged debt, address post-issuance compliance matters and Internal Revenue Service (IRS) examinations, secure IRS rulings, and advocate for regulatory and legislative rule changes.
