Project Development & Finance

Jones Walker represents a wide range of project developers; lenders, both governmental and private; governments; advisers; and underwriters in all phases of the development process. We guide clients from the initial phases of project contract preparation and negotiation through siting, planning, permitting, financing, construction, operation, and management.

Our work on project financing involves all types of conventional financing as well as a variety of equity investments and syndications, joint ventures and partnerships, public and private securities issuances, various forms of construction and long-term loans, subordinated debt, sale/leaseback transactions, taxable and tax-free bond financings, as well as the purchase and sale of facilities and interests in facilities.

We frequently develop novel financing instruments and advise clients on political risk issues in which lenders, borrowers, and sponsors join in complex risk-sharing arrangements tailored to meet the requirements of the particular project. Jones Walker's Project Development & Finance team handles projects throughout Louisiana, the southeastern United States, and on an international basis.

Diversity

Diversity Mission Statement

Jones Walker LLP strives to encourage, foster and increase diversity across the firm. To this end, the Diversity Committee has adopted the goal of fostering a work environment that welcomes different perspectives, backgrounds and life experiences and ensures that an individual’s professional growth, experience or advancement is not limited because of gender, race, color, national origin, religion, sexual orientation, age, disability or other similar factor.

Purposes of the Diversity Committee

  • To increase awareness of the importance of diversity within the firm and of the means by which diversity enriches the firm;
  • To encourage all lawyers and staff members to develop mutual respect and appreciation for different perspectives and backgrounds; and
  • To develop and implement strategies to assist the firm in recruiting, retaining and advancing staff and lawyers from diverse backgrounds.
  • Jones Walker values all employees who contribute positively to the firm’s practice, the firm’s environment, and the greater community we serve.

In 2009, Jones Walker was named to MultiCultural Law Magazine’s list of "Top 100 Law Firms for Women," part of a series of listings of the top 100 law firms for diversity. The listings are compiled based on diversity statistics derived from annual surveys that the publication sends to law firms with more than 100 attorneys.
