501c3 Financings
Our public finance attorneys serve as bond counsel, bank counsel, underwriter’s counsel and trustee’s counsel in financings for nonprofit colleges, universities, secondary schools, healthcare providers and other nonprofit organizations throughout the Southeast.
Our recent work for colleges and universities has involved financings for Vanderbilt University, Rhodes College, Belmont University, Lipscomb University, University of the South (Sewanee) and Trevecca Nazarene University, among others. We also are involved in a significant number of private, K-12 transactions, including deals for The Ensworth School, Montgomery Bell Academy, The Baylor School, Webb School of Knoxville, Memphis University School and St. George’s Independent School, among others.
Coupling public finance experience with our firm’s nationally-recognized healthcare practice, we provide unique insight and effectiveness as bond counsel in healthcare financings for nonprofit hospitals and other healthcare providers throughout Tennessee. We understand these transactions require a greater level of industry-specific knowledge than financings to unregulated borrowers and offer an interdisciplinary and coordinated approach to matters involving nonprofit healthcare finance.
