Consumer Financial Services
The ongoing credit crisis has magnified the potential liabilities that financial institutions face in the marketplace. At the same time, companies are under considerable pressure to reduce costs.
Our lawyers offer clients a high-value, cost-effective option for their legal services. We have represented the consumer financial services industry for more than a decade. In close partnership with our clients, we aggressively and creatively defend a wide range of novel claims brought by some of the country’s leading class action law firms. We have successfully defended numerous class actions, argued appeals, and resolved hundreds of cases on behalf of banks, mortgage lenders, auto finance companies, credit card issuers, debt buyers, collection agencies, insurers, and other financial services companies.
In addition to years of practice in the consumer financial services area, our attorneys have been integrally involved in the industry through leadership positions in local and national bar associations, authoring articles on cutting edge developments for leading consumer finance publications, and lecturing on these topics at meetings of the American Bar Association, the Conference on Consumer Finance Law, the Chicago Bar Association, and the Association of Credit and Collection Professionals, among others.
