Financial Services

NAVIGATING A CHALLENGED ECONOMY. Regulatory and transactional expertise: addressing client needs  and capitalizing on a changing environment.

From acquiring a company to raising public or private funds, we provide strategic and tactical advice, a range of pragmatic options, and bottom-line results. We do more than just help our clients survive the current challenges; we partner with them to find the best solutions and identify new business opportunities.  

As one of the largest and most comprehensive financial services groups in the United States, we understand the complexities and relative merits of different structural approaches for financial services companies and the products and services they offer. And, while many firms specialize in isolated areas of the law affecting the industry, we offer clients expertise in all areas of financial service law, and routinely work in cross-disciplinary teams. We think our clients are well served by this fully integrated practice approach and gain a competitive advantage from it.

With a well-earned and widely-recognized reputation for handling complex matters, we work in banking, consumer financial services, investment and wealth management, hedge funds, real estate, private equity, and privacy matters for clients ranging from money-center and regional banks to global asset and wealth management firms. We represent many of the largest financial institutions  and asset management firms in the world, as well as their investors, domestically and globally.
 
Chambers USA recently ranked us as one of the leading financial services law firms in the U.S. In fact, Chambers called Goodwin Procter “a mighty force in banking and securities regulation, compliance, and consumer financial services work”. This captures the essence of who we are.
