Banking and financial services are highly regulated industries. In fact, our banking attorneys practice a wide range of banking and finance law. Some areas that we regularly assist clients with include:

  • Uniform Commercial Code and Secured Transactions.
  • Financial institution regulation.
  • Loss mitigation, foreclosure, collection, replevin and enforcement of creditor rights.
  • Bankruptcy guidance and representation.
  • Negotiation and documentation of complex commercial transactions.
  • Advising and drafting legal documents in support of retail, residential and commercial loans.
  • Defense against inaccurate or incorrect allegations from consumers and regulators
  • Fraud assistance and anti-money laundering and privacy compliance.
  • Bank to bank swaps and letters of credit.
  • Floor plan financing.
  • General business of banking legal support.  


Lawyers at the Dagger Law firm represent multiple financial institutions. Our services include commercial, residential, and retail transactions. We also handle collections and routinely appear in bankruptcy court to preserve and protect lender rights.

We can provide a cost-effective solution to handling collections and secured transactions for banking institutions. Our lawyers have a proven track record in the courts and have successfully defended financial institutions against consumer claims and other lawsuits. Our attorneys understand the federal, state, and local regulatory requirements that impact your day-to-day business.  Ultimately, Dagger Law never loses sight of the simple fact that our bank clients’ reputation stands tantamount.  Establishing banking policies and customer orientated goals provides transparency and reduces risks to our clients and their customers.  

The bottom line is that we do our part to help keep banks operating by creating a full range of legal solutions that prevent unwanted legal actions before they happen. If your institution faces regulatory action or has received a citation for compliance issues, please contact Dagger Law to set up a consultation today.

We take the time to advise clients on non-financial regulatory issues too. These may include a full range of human resources issues such as employment disputes or alleged discriminatory practices, simple customer service items like properly handling a customer complaint regarding products and services, or even UCC “properly payable” issues.

Meeting with an experienced Banking Law Attorney from Dagger Law can help business owners too.


Small businesses often need to seek financing, whether temporary or long-term, to generate funds to start up a new business venture, deal with an emergency, manage inventory purchasing, pay operating costs, or achieve targeted growth. An attorney who focuses on banking, and business, can assist and guide you as you seek financing for these purposes. If your company is considering commercial financing, our banking law attorneys can assist with structuring your transaction in a manner that best accomplishes your financing goals.
