We partner with our business clients to provide advocacy, sound counsel and representation in legal matters related to banking and finance. Doerner advises lenders, mortgage companies, bank customers and government entities in various transactions, compliance issues or banking law disputes.
On the transactional side, we represent lenders and borrowers in acquisition, working capital, term and revolving loans with all types of interest rate structures, including non-recourse, partially or fully collateralized, equity participation, and other innovative means to obtain capital. Our lawyers also help structure loans, equity participation, lease transactions or other financial instruments necessary to buy or sell a business. Other areas of bank finance on which we advise include structuring, the purchase and sale of hedges, derivatives and other complex instruments; lease financing using real and personal property operating and capital leases; and loans (working capital, term and revolving) with all types of interest rate structures, including non-recourse, partially or fully collateralized, and equity participation loans.
Another important focus of our banking and finance industry activity is regulatory compliance. We counsel state and national banks and financial institutions on regulatory issues at all administrative levels, giving them the guidance they need to conduct business competitively and be compliant.
