Durham Jones & Pinegar attorneys have handled a broad range of banking issues. David Klomp, the Chair of our firm’s Real Estate & Banking Section, is a senior partner in Salt Lake City specializing in banking and financial institutions law. Previously, he was the Regional General Counsel for KeyCorp and its predecessors for over 15 years.
Our attorneys represent banks and other financial institutions in advising them and preparing documentation with respect to all kinds of commercial lending transactions. Additionally, DJP regularly represents lenders in preparing documentation for loans secured by real property, performing also a legal review of matters associated with the survey, zoning, title policy, and environmental matters.
The firm represents a range of financial institutions and credit providers, both large and small. These clients include many Utah financial institutions, as well as regional and national financial institutions. The banking attorneys at DJP have developed a sophisticated banking and financial institutions practice in Utah with many of our lawyers having more than 20 years of experience in this practice area. The banking attorneys at DJP have years of transactional experience with commercial, real estate, and consumer lending transactions, as well as in other more specialized lending areas, and also have an extensive commercial leasing practice. The group has demonstrated expertise in resolving risk management issues for its financial institution clients, such as with problem loans, workouts, and bankruptcy representation. In addition, we also regularly handle commercial collection matters for banks when workouts are ultimately unsuccessful. The group also has experience with regulatory compliance issues and financial institutions operations, formation, and governance issues. We have also advised banking clients about appropriate policies to include in policy manuals and/or credit manuals, and we have drafted policies to that effect.
Our banking practice is integrated with our bankruptcy and corporate and securities practices. The members of this practice group work with other lawyers in the firm to handle complex financings, debt restructurings, and workouts, while also servicing the day-to-day financing and other needs of our commercial finance and banking clients. The scope of substantive expertise allows our lawyers to provide business-oriented, practical advice appropriate to both the specialized needs of the client and the specific transaction.
