Areas of Practice

 
Experience

Mr. Hack’s primary practice focus is providing full-range legal services to banks and other financial institutions. His broad-based financial institutions practice runs the gamut, from acting as issuer’s counsel in many public offerings by bank holding companies to helping clients address examination report criticisms so that enforcement action can be avoided. He has also assisted many clients in developing retail banking documentation that satisfies federal and state consumer regulations or commercial necessities.

He also supports other practice areas within the firm by bringing his extensive knowledge of banking transactions and banking law to the table when bank clients are in need of real estate or litigation assistance.
