Krieg DeVault’s public and municipal finance team uses a unique combination of governmental experience, historical knowledge of state and local issuers, and practical but creative tax advice to help governmental entities, nonprofit organizations, hospitals, educational institutions, and private sector clients meet their tax-exempt financing needs. We have acted as bond counsel, special tax counsel, tax controversy counsel, underwriter's counsel, disclosure counsel, issuer's counsel, borrower's counsel, credit provider's counsel, and trustee's counsel in a wide-range of financings such as general obligation, revenue, lease rental, housing (bond and tax credit), economic development, infrastructure, 501(c)(3), tax increment, and cash flow transactions. Our team of attorneys has worked on financings ranging from $100,000 to $1,000,000,000. Each Krieg DeVault advisor is integrally involved in the financing to ensure that it is accomplished correctly, effectively, and on time.
As municipal governments face new challenges like privatization, as well as traditional concerns involving procurement, financing, and economic development, Krieg DeVault’s experience is invaluable to both public and private sector clients. Members of our team have hands-on municipal government experience, and we work closely with organizations like the Accelerate Indiana Municipalities (AIM) and the Indiana Department of Local Government Finance to keep abreast of new municipal law developments. Our firm has special insight into the complexities of privatizing municipal services, having handled one of the largest public-private partnerships of a municipal water utility ever accomplished in the United States. We also represent cities and towns before all levels of state and federal courts in controversies ranging from annexation disputes to employment litigation.
