Facts: CR hired Bertolino LLP to defend him when the Texas Department of Savings and Mortgage Lending (TDSML) refused to renew his license as a mortgage originator. TDSML’s decision to deny renewal of the license threatened CR’s livelihood and ability to continue working in his chosen field where he had developed a significant network and extensive subject matter expertise.
Outcome: After TDSML made the decision to deny the renewal, Bertolino LLP took swift action to challenge the denial by requesting a hearing to fight the decision in court. We then developed a legal strategy with thorough negotiating points and leveraged our considerable regulatory insights to convince TDSML to approve renewal of the client’s license. TDSML’s decision allowed our client to return to his chosen career and continue doing the work he loved without having to expend additional time and resources fighting in court.
