Our Mortgage Banking Group is part of Ballard Spahr's nationally recognized Consumer Financial Services Group. We combine broad regulatory experience with formidable skill in litigation and depth in enforcement actions and transactions.

    We represent clients worldwide—from start-ups to Fortune 500 corporations—in compliance; state and federal licensing; transactions, due diligence, and audits; and litigation matters. Clients include financial institutions; mortgage lenders, brokers, and servicers; secondary-market investors; insurance companies; investment bankers; settlement service providers; auction platforms; and homebuilders. We also advise industry service providers such as technology vendors, collection agencies, document preparation companies, telemarketers, loan fulfillment companies, and trade associations.

    We also maintain strong industry relationships in both the private and public sector. Our presence in Washington, D.C., benefits clients who require experienced representation before federal agencies such as the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, the Federal Trade Commission, the Federal Reserve Board, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, and the Justice Department.
