Credit Unions

Baldini Lang LLC is the premier credit union law firm in Connecticut and the law firm strategic partner for the Credit Union League of Connecticut. For many of our Connecticut credit union clients, we act as their outsourced general counsel on a wide range of strategic and legal issues.

We also have a national credit union practice representing and supporting credit unions across the country in contract negotiations with critical, high-risk financial technology vendors.

Whether efficiently and effectively negotiating a core processing agreement with Fiserv, FIS, Finastra, Jack Henry or another fintech vendor, interpreting complex regulations, providing practical HR advice, forming a CUSO, or leading a credit union merger, we put our skills and experience to work as passionate and collaborative advocates for our credit union clients.

We understand and believe in the credit union mission of being not-for-profit, member-owned financial institutions run by committed employees and governed by volunteer boards. We represent and advise our credit union clients on a wide range of matters, including:

  • Vendor contract drafting, negotiation and due diligence

  • Core processor RFP’s, contract drafting, and negotiations

  • State and federal regulatory compliance

  • Regulatory examinations conducted by state and federal regulators

  • Privacy notices and policies

  • Information security issues and breach response and notifications

  • Employment matters, including hiring, employment agreements, terminations, and reductions-in-force, as well as drafting employee policies and handbooks

  • State and federal charter expansions and conversions

  • Vendor contract drafting, negotiation and due diligence

  • Core processor RFP’s, contract drafting, and negotiations

We aren’t your typical law firm.

Unlike traditional law firms, we do not maintain extravagant offices or a large staff, or otherwise incur high overhead expenses that get passed on to clients. Instead, we leverage modern technologies and focus on managing costs while still providing high-quality legal advice.
