In the world of banking and finance, it is imperative to have an attorney who understands the language of business, who can analyze and interpret financial statements and who understands financial principles. Having earned an M.B.A. with a concentration in Banking & Finance has proven to be an invaluable asset to my representation of both lenders and borrowers. I believe the ability to understand financial ratios, calculations and financial terms is a necessary skill for any banking attorney. My strong business education complements my legal experience when negotiating financial covenants and other important provisions in loan documents. I have negotiated, drafted and closed numerous banking transactions for multi-million dollar deals.
