Public Finance
The Public Finance Practice Group of Hill Wallack LLP provides a full range of corporate, finance, transactional and bond counsel legal services to corporate and non-profit clients as well as governmental agencies. The firm regularly represents financial institutions and other lenders in connection with the negotiation and preparation of documentation for complex secured and unsecured credit transactions and in tax-exempt financings.
With respect to the public finance practice, the firm acts as bond counsel to various governmental entities. In addition the Group represents underwriters, bond purchasers, trustees and borrowers in tax-exempt or taxable bond transactions.
The Group offers comprehensive corporate representation in all aspects of the capital-raising process from start-up to public offering. We represent and counsel venture capital firms, investment bankers and underwriters, as well as companies using securities, and have assisted clients in raising capital in the marketplace. Other areas of our business and finance practice include mergers, acquisitions and divestitures; joint ventures; reorganizations; and general corporate counseling.
We counsel clients in all aspects of public and private loan transactions, including asset-based loans, commercial real estate loans and more complex lending arrangements including those requiring credit enhancements. Calling upon the expertise of our notable Land Use Division and Environmental Litigation Practice Group, we advise lenders or borrowers as to their responsibilities regarding land approvals and permits as well as the environmental “history” of a deed to real property.
Often, clients who are planning development rely on our direction for providing them with additional resources of investment capital.
