Lender Claims

Lender Liability - Fifth Edition is the leading one-volume work on the subject. This area of the law has grown and matured significantly over the years and is now recognized as a distinct body of law that is the basis of thousands of lawsuits filed over the last decade. Written for both lenders' and borrowers' attorneys, Lender Liability discusses the basics and more advanced issues relating to lender liability. Topics include 1) an extended analysis of where and how lender liability problems arise, 2) common law and statutory theories of liability, 3) bankruptcy concerns and 4) lawsuits against failing or failed financial institutions. A sample complaint, request for production of documents, interrogatories and jury instructions are included on CD for easy use. The work also includes as well tables of state and federal cases and statutes, rules and regulations. This brand new edition has been completely revised, reorganized and updated. It conforms now to the evolution and maturity of Lender Liability as an accepted, cited and well litigated area of commercial and consumer litigation. "Lender Liability" as a body of law has evolved from traditional contract and tort theories, to include causes of action based in the Uniform Commercial Code; including the covenant of good faith and fair dealing. This handy reference work is ideal for either the experienced practitioner or the neophyte involved in representing an institution or client whose interests involve bank liability.

This is a specialist book for solicitors/barristers who are called upon either to bring or defend a claim for professional negligence in relation to mortgage fraud or borrower default or to bring proceedings against borroweres or guarantors of borrowers. They will use this book for an overview of current law in this area.

This book analyzes theories of liability and provides in-depth discussion of: RICO; planning, budgeting and monitoring banking & lender litigation from the perspective of inside counsel and more.

Praise for TREYNOR ON INSTITUTIONAL INVESTING "Jack Treynor has a mind of his own. I mean that as the highest compliment. Jack Treynor sees what no one else sees, thinks what no one else thinks, explains what no one else explains. You will learn more in fifteen minutes with Jack Treynor than in a full hour with most pundits. You will work hard but you will see things, think things, and understand things as never before. This book is a most valuable treasure, gleaming with Jack Treynor's brilliance." -Peter L. Bernstein, author, Capital Ideas Evolving "Vintage Treynor. This is a must-own reference for anyone involved in institutional asset management. It assembles - in one place - many of the important insights of one of the most provocative and creative players in the finance world over the past half-century." -Robert D. Arnott, Chairman, Research Affiliates, and Former Editor, Financial Analysts Journal "As a practicing investment manager, Treynor always preferred brilliance to soundness.
