Brownstein consumer finance attorneys take a full-service and multidisciplinary approach to serving financial technology, ecommerce and financial services companies, which includes marketers, lenders, servicers, lead generators and payment processors. We provide coordinated, relationship-based service. For clients in highly-regulated and emerging industries, we obtain licenses and our government relations personnel pave the way for better and more informed governance at the federal, state and local levels. We help providers and users of consumer finance products negotiate sales and service transactions and we advise consumer finance companies in organization, investments, financing, mergers and acquisitions.

Additionally, our litigators defend financial consumer protection claims and respond to government CIDs and subpoenas based on state and federal financial services laws. Our regulatory and compliance counsel catch your litigation risks before they leave your building and help you obtain pro-industry policy through agency rulemaking and informal advocacy. We develop and update policies and procedures for pre-existing or new services to help you reduce regulatory risk. Brownstein’s intellectual property and privacy attorneys protect your assets through registrations, business-minded contracts, data collection practices and website privacy and cybersecurity incident response plans.

We derive our expertise from the highest reaches of government and as staff in the halls of Congress and major U.S. corporations. Our experience extends to local levels, as well, where we employ our relationships and subject matter expertise to help clients with their licensing, local counsel and regulatory examination issues.
