Built around the work that matters most.
FPCD is a focused national law firm for sophisticated tax credit, community development and impact-investing transactions. Our model is intentionally senior, collaborative and execution-oriented.
Depth without the layers.
Our lawyers have spent decades structuring, negotiating and closing tax-advantaged financings for institutional investors, lenders, community development entities, developers, sponsors and mission-driven organizations.
The firm was built to preserve what clients value most in complex transactions: direct access to senior lawyers, deep market knowledge, practical tax and finance judgment, and a team that stays accountable from first structure through closing and beyond.
Neil Faden, Sameer Patel and Megan Christensen are Co-Founders of the firm. John Dalton is a Partner.
Senior by design
The lawyers who frame the issues stay involved in the documents, negotiations and execution.
Commercial judgment
We distinguish technical issues from true deal risks and keep legal advice tied to business objectives.
Collaborative execution
Tax, finance, real estate and regulatory considerations are solved together—not in separate silos.
Long-view relationships
Our work extends past closing into compliance, amendments, restructurings and exits.
