Financial Services

Investing strategically on your account.

Like the rest of the global economy, the financial services industry is in a constant state of flux as banks and others in the financial services space hasten to meet the changing needs and wishes of their customers in a highly regulated environment. Recognizing this, weโ€™ve assembled a skilled and versatile cross-practice team to counsel and provide legal services for any situation that may confront our clients.

We offer a full range of services related to mergers and acquisitions, CMBS and traditional loan documentation, litigation, complex regulatory issues, strategic planning, and otherwise navigating through the financial services environment. Our team represents numerous regional and local bank holding companies, state and national banks, thrift holding companies and other financial institutions, as well as many other financial services industry participants.
