Career
Prentiss Feagles is a nationally recognized tax authority in real estate investment trusts (REITs) and partnerships. He has worked with the largest REITs and real estate companies in the country for more than 25 years. He does it all in this area – initial public offerings (IPO), mergers, joint ventures, and going private transactions.
He is not interested in telling clients all of the rules and the problems that they will face; instead, he offers them practical solutions. He works as part of an integrated team of more than 40 professionals that focus on public real estate companies and REITs, handling some of the largest merger and acquisition, IPO, and joint venture transactions in that space.
Prentiss also has served as the Global Chief Financial Officer for Hogan Lovells. He was instrumental in the 2010 transatlantic merger of Hogan & Hartson and Lovells, the largest ever merger of two law firms. From those experiences, he understands the demands of running a business and the need for solutions, not problems, and he keeps those lessons in mind when advising clients.
