Commercial Banking and Finance Law Practice
Members of the Commercial Banking & Finance Law group at Davidoff Hutcher & Citron offer extensive knowledge of the banking industry, regulatory compliance, as well as an understanding of current issues facing financial institutions. We represent financial institutions and other lenders in all phases of commercial transactions, such as commercial lending, structured finance and securitization, and creditors’ rights in bankruptcy, as well as dispute resolution and litigation matters, such as commercial foreclosures. DHC has five offices located in New York City, NY, Albany, NY, Washington, D.C., White Plains, NY and Palm Beach, FL.
Transactional services for commercial lenders
Financial institutions, life insurance companies and other lenders can trust our commercial banking and finance lawyers for solid, practical legal representation in the negotiation, structuring and documentation of commercial lending transactions, including commercial real estate loans and mezzanine financing, acquisition financing, syndicated commercial loans, and asset-based lending. We focus on representing financial institutions, lenders and real estate investment trusts (REITs) in commercial lending purchase/acquisition, equity lines, construction, and permanent financing transactions of commercial real estate properties. Our attorneys handle complex commercial real estate development, financing of major properties, such as retail shopping centers, entertainment complexes, hotels, office buildings, manufacturing and industrial properties, multi-family properties, such as condominiums and apartment buildings, and housing developments.
Representing creditor’s rights in commercial foreclosures and debt restructuring
Our commercial banking and finance lawyers counsel financial institutions, lenders and other creditors in strategies to minimize commercial financing losses. We represent these clients’ interests in commercial collections and commercial foreclosures, and, together with the firm’s Bankruptcy Law practice group, in bankruptcy proceedings. We also excel in matters of debt refinancing, workout and out-of-court debt restructuring transactions.
