Banking & Financial Services Litigation

Partnering with our clients to achieve the most cost-effective results

With the industry facing some of the most sweeping changes in more than a century, we live in a time of financial, economic and business uncertainty.

To rise to meet these challenges, financial institutions – more than ever – need attorneys who understand their business and commit to working hand-in-hand with them to tackle their problems. With the industry landscape changing daily, adaptation, efficiency and unwavering support are as important now as they have been in recent memory.

In every instance, the Burns White Banking and Financial Services Litigation Practice Group takes a business approach to litigation. With a substantial and enduring commitment to understanding our clients’ businesses, we strategically focus all efforts toward achieving their goals in every case.

Our attorneys possess significant experience in state and federal courts and across multi-state jurisdictions, representing a broad range of financial institutions. Our cases have involved both single plaintiff and class action claims in areas addressing consumer protection laws, predatory lending and federal mortgage regulations, claims against trusts, trustees and various types of servicers, along with substantial litigation claims including fraud and multiple sets of common law allegations. Further, we have significant commercial litigation experience involving financial institutions, including alleged breaches of relationships, insurance claims, disputes among partnerships and business interests, and in many other commercial contexts.

Our clients include national banks, federal and state savings associations, commercial banks, independent and industrially-owned finance companies and limited purpose banks, mortgage bankers and brokers, insurance and oil companies, loan originators, servicers, trusts and trustees.

We look forward to working with you. As a strategic partner for your business, we roll up our sleeves to help so you can roll yours down.
