Jennifer R. Blaser

Biography

With more than 20 years of experience in public finance law, Jennifer helps her clients turn their envisioned projects into reality. She routinely works side-by-side with municipalities, counties, townships, special districts, and school districts across Ohio to secure the financing needed for critical capital projects. Whether planning a major capital project or facing intricate financing challenges, Jennifer’s depth of experience and client-first approach to every engagement gives her clients the confidence and clarity to help them progress from concept to completion.

Jennifer provides her clients more than legal counsel. She is known for her responsiveness and unwavering commitment to client success, helping clients navigate complex financing structures and regulatory requirements to achieve their objectives efficiently and confidently. As bond counsel, underwriter’s counsel, or bank counsel, Jennifer’s experience serving in all of these roles helps ensure her clients realize success in the taxable and tax-exempt bond and note issues that are so essential to funding schools, fire and public safety facilities, building improvements, libraries and other vital projects. Her counsel extends to lease and lease-purchase financings, election proceedings, and compliance with security and disclosure obligations—always with a focus on protecting client interests and ensuring successful outcomes.

Beyond her transactional work, Jennifer is a trusted resource in the public finance industry, and she is frequently asked to present her insights at seminars and conferences, including training sessions to state finance officers and professional organizations such as the Government Finance Officers Association, Ohio Association of School Business Officials and Ohio School Board Association.
