New York, N.Y., January 13, 2021 – Greenspoon Marder is pleased to announce that Jeannette Bond has become of counsel to the firm’s growing public finance group.
Ms. Bond has been a member of the public finance team since 2008, serving as special tax counsel through McCarter and English, LLP until her recent retirement from that firm after more than 20 years as special counsel.
Her understanding of the intricacies of Section 103 of the Internal Revenue Code as it applies to tax-exempt and other tax-advantaged obligations is an invaluable asset to the attorneys in Greenspoon Marder’s public finance practice group.
“Jeannette has been a great help in crafting solutions to many of the difficult issues that arise in complex public financings. I am thrilled that she will continue to work with us in an of counsel role,” said partner Denise Ganz .
“Jeannette’s depth of knowledge makes her an instrumental member of our public finance practice group as we serve our existing clients and expand into markets outside of Florida,” commented partner Skip Miller .
Ms. Bond has practiced exclusively in the public finance area for over forty years, and has provided tax services as bond counsel, underwriters’ counsel, and special tax counsel in New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts, Florida, Maine, Ohio, Maryland, and California. She has been an active member of the National Association of Bond Lawyers (“NABL”) since 1983, and served as Treasurer of NABL and a member of the Board of Directors of NABL. In 1995, she chaired the General Tax Matters Committee of NABL and testified on its behalf before the IRS on the then-proposed private activity bond regulations. In 1993 and 1994, she was a member of the first Editorial Board that compiled the material for NABL’s multi-volume service entitled Federal Taxation of Municipal Bonds. She has provided advice in IRS audits, assisted clients in obtaining private letter rulings and helped develop post-issuance compliance procedures.
