I regularly counsel community banks on all aspects of the corporate existence, with an emphasis on regulatory compliance, mergers and acquisitions, and securities law issues. I advise financial institutions, as well as their officers and directors, concerning the issues resulting from the current difficult financial and regulatory environment. These issues include advice reflecting all aspects of regulatory enforcement actions and, if necessary, preparation for the potential receivership of the institution. I also provide counsel regarding raising capital, strategic alternatives, corporate governance matters, minimizing director and officer liability and strategies for dealing with dissident shareholders. I have advised clients on, and am a frequent public speaker about, the Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP), and the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act. I also advise public companies, including those listed on the New York Stock Exchange and the NASDAQ Stock Market, as well as private companies, on a wide variety of securities-related issues, including raising capital, the preparation and filing of annual, quarterly and current reports, Section compliance, proxy solicitations and going private transactions. I have served as the lead attorney on several merger and acquisition transactions, including branch purchases, representing both purchasers and sellers. I am also the founder and principal editor of BankBryanCave.com, Bryan Cave's legal blog focused on banking law issues for community banks.
