Heidi A. Hansan, a lawyer who represents community development lenders in financing projects, rejoined Miles & Stockbridge in April as a principal in the law firm’s Real Estate & Transactional Finance Practice Group.

Hansan has deep experience in transactions focused on neighborhood revitalization, economic development, multifamily housing and charter schools, as well as tax-exempt and taxable public finance transactions.

“We are thrilled to have Heidi back at the firm,” said Nancy W. Greene, chairman of Miles & Stockbridge. “Not only is she a ‘go to’ lawyer for lenders and their social impact projects across the mid-Atlantic region, she is a past board member of our firm and a leader through and through.”

She has represented clients in the financial sector for more than two decades. In addition to community development lenders, she has worked extensively with national, regional, state and local banks, public and private lenders, investors and other financial institutions, primarily in the areas of affordable housing, community development and real estate finance.

She also has represented lenders in traditional real estate financings, acquisition and construction loans, tax credit financings (including federal low-income housing tax credits, state and federal historic tax credits and new market tax credits), commercial loans, acquisition and bridge financing for skilled nursing and assisted living facilities.

“I am so glad Miles & Stockbridge is a place that welcomes colleagues back,” said Hansan. “The resources are top tier, and I am grateful to be renewing professional friendships at the same time.”
