designation
KDDK attorneys assemble tracts of land
ranging from 100 to 1,000-plus acres for large companies.
The team has been a part of significant facility relocations
and industrial developments such as the Vanderburgh Industrial
Park, AK Steel Corporation and Toyota.
The goal is to give the competitive
advantage to companies considering expansion or a move
to this region. This is done in part by exploring every
tax deferral option including grants, income tax allowances,
benefits and property tax savings. Acting as leaders in
most of the region’s business and governmental organizations,
KDDK attorneys stay keenly in front of the region’s economic
development issues.
The firm’s attorneys advise and represent
clients in municipal government matters such as eminent
domain, property leasing, retail development, commercial
office buildings, taxation, sales and acquisitions, construction
contracting and environmental law.
A number of KDDK attorneys currently
serve as officers for the Evansville Industrial Foundation
and the Chamber of Commerce of Southwestern Indiana --
or have worked with their members. At any given time it
is likely that more than one KDDK attorney is engaged
in representing some city or county entity in this region.
KDDK attorneys take leadership roles
in the development, expansion or improvement of key facilities
that serve the public. Recent projects include:
- Evansville Museum of Arts, History & Science
- Evansville Sewer & Water Projects
- Goebel Soccer Complex
- Interstate 164 and Interstate 69
