Shuttleworth & Ingersoll is listed in the Bond Buyer’s Municipal Marketplace (the “Red Book”) as nationally recognized bond counsel.
Bond financing work requires a deep understanding of the complexities of the rules and regulations of the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) applicable to tax exempt bond issuances and the rules of the Securities Exchange Commission (SEC) in the event the bonds are to be publicly marketed.
