Columbia, SC – Southern Business & Development magazine has named Parker Poe among the top economic development law firms in the South.

The magazine, which writes about economic development, site selection, and business expansions, based the designation on its more than 30 years of tracking project activity in the South and who was involved in capturing those projects.

The firm’s Business Expansion + Location Solutions (BELS) Team, led by firm partner Sam Moses, advises international and domestic companies and their advisors seeking to locate, expand, or restructure facility operations in North America. The collaborative model brings together attorneys and consultants to meet the needs of each client.

The legal services offered by Parker Poe economic development attorneys under the BELS model are complemented by the site selection services offered by the firm’s subsidiary, Parker Poe Consulting - Location Solutions, to create an integrated, turnkey solution for expanding businesses. The BELS Team was built on a foundation of helping clients and communities advance their economic development priorities. Earlier this year, Mark Simmons transitioned leadership of this site selection and economic development division to Nelson Lindsay. You can read more about the leadership transition here.

Southern Business & Development was founded in 1992 and covers economic development in the South.
