Sigal practiced public finance from 1964 to 2016 including fifty years with the national law firm of Hawkins Delafield & Wood. Hawkins Delafield & Wood is the #1 underwriters counsel in public finance, and has underwritten over $1 trillion in public finance projects, including $129 billion in power and renewable energy and $154 billion in transportation projects. For the last 10 years, it has been named one of the best law firms in the country by U.S. News.
Sigal was the bond counsel or underwriters' partner in charge of major tax-exempt or taxable bond issues in many states as well as the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. During his career, Sigal crafted innovative, precedent-setting public finance structures, including the multibillion -dollar bond issue to finance the new capital needs of Puerto Rico and the first clean water bond program that leveraged federal water and sewer grants.
A graduate of Yale University (1960) and the University of Chicago School of Law (1963), Sigal’s contribution to the creation of financing strategies to support the growth of public infrastructure are unmatched. As Thomas Ritter, former Speaker of the House of Representatives in Connecticut says, "“Dick Sigal taught me that no matter how hard the legislature worked on a bill, that implementation isn’t complete without having a top-notch expert, like Dick, in public finance."
