Financial institutions face an increasingly
complex business, technological, and regulatory environment. Members
of Stuart & Branigin's Banking and Creditors' Rights practice
group have served for generations as trusted legal counsel and business
advisors to financial institutions in Indiana and beyond. We know
the law and business of commercial banking and insurance, and have
the in-depth experience needed to achieve clients' goals.
Institutional clients include commercial banks,
credit unions, insurance companies, and other lenders. We also assist
borrowers in structuring and obtaining financing to meet their capital
needs; in negotiating loans from banks, insurance companies, and
other lending institutions; and in obtaining tax-exempt bond financing
where appropriate.
We routinely advise clients in:
• Developing financing structures, negotiating loan terms,
and drafting loan documents in
commercial loan transactions
• Actions against borrowers and guarantors
• Real estate foreclosures
• Enforcement of remedies under security agreements, mortgages,
and personal property leases
• Workouts and collections of problem commercial loans and
trade credits
• Prevention and defense of lender liability claims
• Enforcement of creditors' rights in the context of bankruptcy
When financial institutions require knowledge in other areas of
the law - such as tax, regulatory,
business transactions,
business counseling, insurance,
buying and selling businesses,
real estate, or employment
law - attorneys from other practice groups can help meet these
needs. In addition, Stuart & Branigin
trial lawyers often assist in cases involving enforcement or
defense actions.
