I engaged Eric McGlothlin and Dickinson Wright to assist our school district with a significant bond issuance for a new facility. His 17 years of experience in public finance law were evident; he was thorough with the tax-exempt structuring and the closing documents were impeccable. His recognition in this specific field is well-deserved. The work product was solid. However, the experience was somewhat mixed. At times, there were noticeable delays in email responses, which created anxiety during tight deadlines. While he was always ultimately available for critical calls, the day-to-day communication felt less proactive than I had hoped. For a straightforward municipal bond matter, his expertise from Georgetown and his deep Michigan practice is certainly valuable, but you may need to manage expectations around responsiveness.
