   Consumer Finance & Mortgage Banking
 
Description

 

The consumer finance and residential mortgage banking industries face increased scrutiny in legal compliance. New litigation theories of recovery emerge based on various state and federal lending statutes. In addition, federal and state legislators propose new law to curb a perception of “predatory lending” and other problems in lending.

Legal counsel with experience in consumer finance litigation, regulation compliance, and legislative advocacy can team with banking interests to minimize problems, devise strategies, and change policy.

At Bricker & Eckler LLP, our Consumer Finance & Mortgage Banking Practice Group provides its clients with the litigation resources to effectively defend the full range of federal, state, and common law causes of action that arise in the context of consumer financing and residential mortgage transactions.

Bricker & Eckler LLP offers comprehensive regulatory advice and counseling to insure that its consumer finance and mortgage banking clients can comply with all applicable laws. Bricker & Eckler LLP also offers full access to the firm's government relations and lobbying resources to encourage legislative and administrative developments in the industry's best interests.

If you are looking for a full service firm with deep resources to handle your consumer finance based transactional, litigation, regulatory and compliance, and legislative advocacy needs, Bricker & Eckler LLP looks forward to providing those services.
