There is truth to the saying that the three things that matter with respect to property are “location, location, location.” Finding the best location, however, involves the analysis of multiple factors such as available federal, state and local incentives, ability to build key relationships with state and local agencies, zoning and real estate issues, labor and construction markets, and other classic public and private transactional issues. Joint multidisciplinary teams of professionals from Thompson Hine LLP and its wholly owned subsidiary, Project Management Consultants LLC (PMC), routinely help clients understand, access and balance all of these factors and, as a result, find the right locations for new manufacturing facilities, distribution centers, corporate headquarters and other projects, and serve as legal and consulting partners through all phases of the site selection and development process.

Commonly known as the “Birthplace of Aviation,” Dayton also is referred to as the “Cradle of Creativity.” The city has one of the highest concentrations of technical practitioners in the world, with more than 23,000 engineers, scientists, computer specialists and technicians working in various industries. As a result, Dayton is one of the top 25 metropolitan areas in the country in numbers of patents awarded by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. It is not surprising, therefore, that the core of Thompson Hine’s patent and trademark practice is located in Dayton.

Dayton boasts many diverse organizations and community groups that welcome volunteers with open arms. It is a city where young professionals can readily make an impact on and contribute to the community’s growth. Dayton offers the sophisticated lifestyle of many larger cities coupled with unrivaled access to all the region has to offer.
