- Due diligence associated with acquisitions of mortgage and consumer finance companies and loan portfolios.
- Portfolio reviews to identify risk and determine valuation, including coordinating legal, financial, and econometric modeling professionals.
- Obtaining licenses, charters, and change of control approvals from federal and state consumer credit and banking agencies for private equity firms, hedge funds, and other investors.
- Advising on the set up of loan origination and servicing platforms in compliance with state and federal regulatory requirements (RESPA, TILA, FCRA, FDCPA, FHA, BSA, UDAP, etc.).
- Legislative and regulatory representation including assistance in negotiating with regulators and law enforcement personnel. Our legal personnel are regularly in contact with state and federal regulators and in many cases have experience serving as counsel to regulatory agencies or the Congress.
