Financial Services Litigation:While in private practice, I represented financial institutions in complex mortgage securitization, secured transactions, commercial loan and consumer litigation. This experience includes defending investment banks in cases involving commercial mortgage-backed securities. I also defended financial institutions in state and federal regulatory investigations, as well as litigation involving claims arising under a plethora of statutes, including Article 4A of the UCC, the Fair Housing Act, the Truth in Lending Act, the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, the Fair Credit Reporting Act, the Federal Debt Collection Practices Act, the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act, and in post-bankruptcy discharge litigation. Additionally, I developed a niche practice in the fair housing and fair lending space, helping clients navigate a host of litigated matters and regulatory investigations focused on these issues. General Commercial Litigation:My experience ranged from representing clients in state and federal regulatory investigations, including management of complex document productions/e-discovery to CGL and D&O insurance coverage matters bearing upon the subject of underlying litigation. My experience also includes enforcement of high-value monetary judgments, and litigating a broad array of commercial tort and contract disputes.Construction Litigation:I represented owners and contractors in state and federal court in lawsuits involving construction negligence, acceleration and/or delay claims, and mechanics’ and materialmens’ lien disputes, and have presented on these issues. My construction-related experience also includes serving, on an interim basis, as in-house counsel for a political subdivision, which deepened my understanding of the issues arising from all dimensions of construction.
