Baker McKenzie has enhanced its focus on renewable energy tax law by re-appointing Keith Hagan as a partner in its North America tax practice, situated in Miami, according to an announcement by the firm. Hagan’s return marks a strategic move by Baker McKenzie to bolster its capabilities in advising on cross-border and domestic transactions, particularly those involving development and infrastructure project finance, project mergers and acquisitions, and private equity.
Hagan brings with him substantial expertise in providing tax and commercial guidance. His areas of specialization include federal tax incentives, notably energy production tax credits and investment tax credits. He also advises on the monetization of these credits, making him a valuable asset in structuring financially viable renewable energy projects.
In a legal landscape where renewable energy is increasingly significant, Hagan’s reappointment is indicative of Baker McKenzie’s commitment to navigating the complexities of modern energy taxation and leveraging incentives effectively for their clients. His expertise will be instrumental for clients looking to capitalize on federal tax benefits in the burgeoning renewable energy sector.
