BakerHostetler's Project Development and Finance team has a wealth of experience executing all aspects of the development and financing of a complex, large-scale project. Our team is national in scope and is supported by other lawyers as needed for tax, regulatory, land use, construction and environmental issues that arise in the course of the siting, permitting, development and financing of a typical large-scale project.
We have the knowledge, resources and relationships to take a manufacturing facility or power plant from greenfield to financing to completion and successful operation. We know how to structure multi-layering equity and debt financing stacks on the right terms and how to integrate support from local, state and federal government. Our lawyers also regularly negotiate sophisticated commercial contracts and project support arrangements necessary for fully-financed projects.
We have substantial experience in the various federal and state regulatory considerations critical to successful completion of major facilities. Our Federal Policy team provides additional support in crafting legislative solutions, providing input on Congressional efforts and working with offices within the executive branch responsible for the formulation and administration of various aspects of federal policy.
