Amy’s practice focuses on finance, commercial real estate and tax credit finance. Her experience is unique in that she has acted as counsel on all sides of development projects, representing developers, lenders, bridge lenders, investors and syndicators so she understands well each party’s goals and how to lead effectively and efficiently to get the deal closed.

Over her career, she has represented more than 20 financial institutions in all areas of commercial finance, with special emphasis on non-recourse and limited recourse debt, real estate and construction financing, asset-based financing, bridge and mezzanine financing and multi-lender financing. She has experience with major housing developments, shopping centers, hotels, condominiums and other large scale development projects in Rhode Island and Massachusetts and throughout the country.

Amy represents investors, developers and lenders in federal and state tax credit transactions. She is well-versed in numerous tax credit initiatives and has been involved with historic, low-income housing, brownfields, film and energy efficiency credits as well as other state-specific incentive programs. She worked with RI Commerce to pave the way for lenders to bridge the Rebuild RI tax credits and regularly represents developers in connection with Rhode Island Commerce incentives: Rebuild RI credits, Sales and Use Tax Rebates, Qualified Jobs credits and Tax Increment Financing. She routinely assists developers with obtaining Rhode Island and Massachusetts tax incentives.

In the area of real estate, Amy represents developers in all aspects of property acquisition, sales, tax stabilization, development, leasing and management. Amy regularly serves as local counsel for real estate development projects in Rhode Island and Massachusetts.
