Williams Mullen attorneys stand ready to assist clients with all types of regulatory examinations and enforcement proceedings. Further, we help clients respond to Attorney Generals investigations, Federal Trade Commission allegations and subpoenas. Our skilled litigators stand ready to help clients mitigate risk, appropriate disclosures and defend client interests against those of claimants such as borrowers, investors and employees. These experienced attorneys are backed by years of accomplishment in “bet the farm” types of cases, from consumer class actions to fiduciary challenges. With every case, we apply advanced electronic discovery methodologies in order to prepare the most thorough and effective defense.
Much of our transactional lending work involves the complexities of securitized finance and secondary markets as they are affected by this credit crisis. Well-versed in the Uniform Commercial Code, Truth in Lending Act, Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act, the Home Mortgage Disclosure Act, the Fair Credit Reporting Act and other consumer finance laws, Williams Mullen’s financial services attorneys are experienced in mortgage offerings, commercial mortgage backed securities, mezzanine debt transactions, lines of credit, collateralized debt and loan obligations, defaults and structuring transactions, repurchase agreements and bankruptcy proceedings.
