Banking & Finance

As a borrower, how can you be certain that the stack of loan documents that you are being asked to sign really matches the business deal you negotiated with your lender? As a lender, how can you protect the collateral and cash flow underpinning your willingness to lend while affording your borrower the flexibility needed to succeed? Is the loan my nonprofit organization needs to expand its facilities to help more people eligible for a tax-exempt interest rate? What terms does the market consider to be fair and reasonable for my type of commercial loan? What are my rights, obligations, and options as a lender or a borrower if required payments cannot be made in a timely manner? These are just a few of the questions that the attorneys of MacDonald Illig’s Banking & Finance Group are regularly called upon to answer for their broad array of credit transaction clients.

Whatever the level of sophistication of your borrowing or lending needs, our Banking & Finance Practice Group has the knowledge and experience to provide clear analysis, carefully crafted documentation, and well-reasoned alternatives to you or your business.
