Kimberly Magrini has handled a variety of complex transactions and financings during her nine years at Ballard Spahr LLP. She serves as counsel to investment banking firms, investors, municipalities and trustees in a number of different public finance and municipal securities transactions.
Kimberly has established herself as one of the top young public finance lawyers in the Philadelphia region as evident when she was named to The Legal Intelligencer's 2018 list of leading attorneys under age 40 in Pennsylvania. Her experience has included representing an array of not-for-profit organizations including hospitals, colleges, charter schools and museums. She has spearheaded multiple large public-private partnership transactions, such as the Virginia Department of Transportation for its I-395 high-occupancy toll lane project.
“Kim's collaborative and creative approach and experience with municipal and other public finance matters are exceptional for an attorney of her relatively young age,” said Emilie R. Ninan, co-chair of Ballard Spahr’s finance department.
A former USA Women's Rugby National Team member, Kimberly has stayed active in recent years as a recreational ice hockey player and scuba diver. Kimberly’s passion for sports has extended into her pro bono work, where she was part of a legal team representing players from the United States women’s hockey team as they pursued gender equity with USA Hockey.
