The Government Policy Practice provides business and non-profit clients with focused services designed to maximize access to government-established economic development and tax incentive programs. We can help state, local and tribal units of government in accessing available economic development funds and programs at the state and federal levels, as well as assisting them develop their own programs to accomplish their economic development objectives.

Professionals in our Michigan, Illinois, and Washington D.C. offices are available to provide services to businesses, government entities, and non-profits interested in accessing government-sponsored economic development and tax incentive programs and includes access to federal benefits through the firm’s Washington, D.C. office.

Dykema’s Economic Development Solutions Services are an integral part of the Government Policy Practice with involvement from the Firm’s Taxation and Estates, Corporate Finance, Real Estate, Construction and Environmental Groups.

Dykema’s unique combination of economic development professionals, government policy advisors and legal skills provides a wide range of skills and experience to assist clients in successfully completing their development project.

In addition, Dykema maintains alliances with other professional organizations, including economists, marketing firms, public relations organizations and others, as required to meet a client’s needs.
