Credit Union

Given their structure and governance, credit unions have very specific legal needs. Kaufman & Canoles’ Credit Union Team understands the credit union difference – member owned, not-for profit financial institutions that are governed by volunteer boards.

Who We Are

Credit unions are different from other financial institutions, have specific legal needs, and face special problems.
Kaufman & Canoles’ long-established Credit Union Team combines attorneys from five of our offices, admitted in many states, each of whom understands the credit union difference: member owned, not-for profit financial institutions that are governed by volunteer boards. Our Credit Union Team attorneys, and dedicated and experienced paraprofessionals, are committed to helping credit union executives and their boards of directors run successful credit unions. On a daily basis, we advise credit unions on federal and state laws and regulations particular to the credit union community. We partner with credit unions to ensure smooth operations in all areas, including labor and employment and general compliance issues; Fair Credit Reporting Act and Uniform Commercial Code compliance; loan participation sales and purchases; commercial litigation including class action defense; corporate governance, and real estate transactions. We not only understand a credit union’s unique needs, we anticipate them.
What We Do

Kaufman & Canoles has a substantial credit union practice, serving as general counsel to credit unions, large and small. We regularly advise our clients on consumer compliance issues, NCUA requirements, and the rules governing credit union service organizations. We provide our credit union clients with the convenience and cost-effectiveness of obtaining comprehensive legal services from one law firm.
