Although many people talk about “public-private partnerships,” the attorneys at the Filippini Law Firm are skilled at using the tools available to make such partnerships work. Through the use of tax increment financing (TIF), special service areas (SSA), business district financings, incentive agreements, zoning approvals, public financing, and the creative coordination of these and other tools, the Filippini Law Firm has helped its private and governmental clients achieve success in promoting new and financially successful developments, even in the depths of the Great Recession.

Attorneys at the Filippini Law Firm have also defended the economic initiatives of its governmental clients and vindicated the rights to incentives of its private clients in court. Filippini Law Firm attorneys have also written and lectured on TIFs, SSAs, and economic development matters and received a research grant to study an economic development program from the Institute of Politics at Harvard University’s John F. Kennedy School of Government.
