Banking and finance law covers the legal side of borrowing, lending, and managing money. Matters often include commercial loans, mortgages, lines of credit, equipment financing, and the documents that secure them, such as promissory notes and guarantees. It can also involve how banks and other financial institutions operate, including compliance with the rules that apply to them, as well as disputes between lenders and borrowers, loan restructuring, and the handling of defaulted debt.
Law firms of many sizes list this practice area in the directory, along with in-house legal teams at banks, credit unions, and lending companies. Some attorneys represent lenders, while others represent businesses or individuals who borrow. When choosing counsel, it can help to ask whether the attorney has handled matters similar to yours and which side they usually represent. You can also confirm that an attorney is registered and in good standing through the New York Attorney Search before you hire them.
