Banking Law
Real world experience. That is what distinguishes MM&R’s banking law practice from many other law firms. Our attorneys do not just practice banking law, they have hands-on experience in the day-to-day operations of banking institutions. Our team even includes a former bank president and a former director of the Federal Reserve. We represent a wide range of banks and financial institutions throughout the Southern Illinois region, providing representation ranging from routine banking matters to sophisticated banking litigation, all while attending to our clients’ individual needs and concerns.
MM&R’s attorneys have a broad range of experience in all areas of banking law, including cases involving asset-based lenders, lessors and other financial intermediaries. Banking law services include:
- Bank Sales and Acquisitions
- Holding Company Formations
- Collection Actions
- Loan Workouts
- Mortgage Foreclosures
- Loan Documentation
- S Elections
- Lender Liability Litigation
- Regulatory Matters
Our clients range from small community-based financial institutions to large multistate banking organizations.
Real world experience and up-to-date knowledge are essential. Members of our banking practice group have received appointments to the Commercial, Banking and Bankruptcy Section Council of the Illinois State Bar Association, serving as chairpersons and members. MM&R is an associate member of the Community Bankers Association of Illinois, the Illinois Bankers Association and the Missouri State Bankers Association, and the firm frequently sponsors banking law seminars covering topics ranging from legislative updates to issues relating to bank S elections and holding companies. Members of the firm are frequent guest lecturers and authors, and they serve academic appointments, including an associate professorship at Saint Louis University School of Law.
