Financial Services Regulation

Our attorneys enjoy and continue to earn a long-standing reputation as go-to attorneys for significant financial institution regulatory and transactional issues. We bring financial institution clients extensive experience, not only with the federal and state legal and regulatory frameworks within which they operate, but also with the applicable regulatory bodies and agencies. Our Financial Services Regulatory practice covers the range of transactional, regulatory and compliance issues that financial institutions confront on a daily basis. Clients include commercial banks, thrift institutions, trust companies, credit unions, holding companies, mortgage companies, mortgage servicers, automobile lenders and credit card companies.

Some of the many areas in which we provide advice to financial institutions include merger and acquisition transactional services; capital-raising; securities law reporting; regulatory advice; enforcement proceedings before state and federal regulatory agencies; holding company and affiliate issues; corporate governance, including compliance with Sarbanes-Oxley; and e-commerce and Internet issues.
