FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS

The issues facing financial institutions vary according to the type of practice and by evolving regulations put into place by Congress. While the majority of claims against financial institutions come from routine operations – a customer slips and falls, an employee injures someone in an auto accident, etc., there are other unique situations that are becoming increasingly prevalent.

Professional liability is a major issue in today’s regulatory and litigation environment.
