With over a century of combined experience, the lawyers at Gray Pannell & Woodward LLP are known as one of the foremost bond, disclosure and underwriter’s counsel in Georgia.

In 2008, Tom Gray, Jim Pannell and Jon Pannell recognized the need for a new kind of law firm in Georgia – one that concentrated on the complex issues in the ever-changing world of public finance. With the addition of Jim Woodward, the law firm of Gray Pannell & Woodward LLP was formed. GPW provides Georgia with lawyers strategically located throughout the state, in Savannah and Athens, and is the firm of choice for meeting the financing needs of Georgia’s communities.
