Large-Scale Land Development

As the leading Texas public finance law firm dedicated to land development, public infrastructure, and economic and community development, our exclusive focus is representing developers and public entities in public finance.

From Dirt to Decades

Large-scale land development shapes how Texas grows with projects spanning thousands of acres and requiring coordinated planning for housing, utilities, mobility, drainage, parks, open space, and long-term governance. ABHR aligns private investment with public infrastructure needs through financing frameworks that sustain multi-phase, multi-jurisdiction projects over decades.

ABHR creates the legal and financial structures that make this alignment possible.

Master Planned Communities

The Framework for Responsible Growth

Texas communities are growing rapidly, and large-scale developments must balance housing needs with long-term infrastructure demands. We help clients structure projects that enhance the quality of life in the communities where people live, work, and gather.

Advancing Large-Scale Land Development

Our areas of specialization integrate seamlessly to support planning, financing, and delivery across multi-phase developments. These tools create predictable models to incentivize early investment and ensure that quality public infrastructure is funded and maintained over time.
