PSH has extensive experience representing a full range of clients involved in the issuance of tax-exempt and taxable securities.  We serve as bond counsel, underwriter’s counsel, disclosure counsel, issuer’s counsel, borrower’s counsel, bank counsel, and special tax counsel.  Our clients include a full range of governmental issuers (states, municipalities, state agencies and housing authorities), nonprofits (schools, colleges, hospitals, and health care institutions), and financial institutions (underwriters and banks).

Shortly after PSH’s inception, we became one of the listed eligible bond counsel in the municipal bond attorney’s section of The Bond Buyer’s Municipal Marketplace. Since then, our Public Finance practice has been a strong part of the firm and we are consistently among the ranked counsel in The Bond Buyer.

The attorneys in Public Finance have a demonstrated ability to handle financings expeditiously and efficiently, and to operate under sometimes severe time constraints.  We have worked with all principal financial advisors, underwriters, bond insurers, and rating agencies, as well as on various types of structures, both publicly sold and competitively bid, and have significant experience with multi-modal, variable rate issues, taxable bond issues, and swaps.  The municipal bond industry has undergone enormous growth and drastic change over the past several decades.  At each turn, PSH has offered creative problem solving to help clients reach their financing goals.
