Several of our attorneys represent clients in a variety of securities law issues.  The firm has advised clients on issues involving financing for public and private entities.  We have represented both issuers and investors in private placements.  We have acted as bond counsel and trustee counsel in Arkansas Development Finance Authority bond issues. We have counseled issuers in numerous corporate securities offerings, including initial and secondary capital offerings for financial institutions, offerings for bank holding companies, foreign offerings pursuant to Regulation S, and restricted offerings pursuant to Regulation D.  Frequently in connection with securities offerings, we are called upon to offer professional advice on ancillary issues in securities offerings such as taxation, real estate, banking, and environmental matters.
