Michiana Banking Lawyers

We have forged relationships with our banking clients in Southwest Michigan and Northern Indiana that go back decades.  Our relationships are predicated upon trust, dedication, and the background and experience to provide sophisticated legal counsel concerning a wide variety of matters.

We provide a wide range of services to local banking institutions.  We assist them with their internal operations, and, at their request, with the various legal needs of their clients.

For Banking Institutions

We regularly provide legal counsel in the areas of annual shareholder meetings, proxy materials, securities issues, loan workouts creditor litigation, bankruptcy defense, outstanding debt collections, and various types of financing documentation, and complex mortgage agreements (both commercial and residential), foreclosures and commercial lending.  We also provide counsel and representation concerning bank operational matters, including transactions, employment agreements, and leases.

For Banking Clients

We are often asked by the banks we serve to provide transactional advice and legal counsel to their clients.  These referrals often include business matters such as entity formation, shareholder and buy-sell agreements, mergers and acquisitions, real estate transactions, leasing, and estate planning.
