Los Angeles, renowned as the heart of the entertainment industry, boasts a booming international trade economy, as well as technological business innovation and a large service sector.

In this leading financial center, Los Angeles-based banks lend to both commercial and residential customers in the metropolitan area and throughout the state.
 
When banking litigation arises, Jason D. Koontz provides his expert witness services to attorneys representing plaintiffs and defendants in the Los Angeles, California area.

Recent clients include Bank of America, Wells Fargo, JPMorgan Chase, and some of the largest mortgage loan servicers in the United States. Expert services have included underwriting, mortgage loan servicing and foreclosure matters. Koontz also reviews debt collection cases. He examines loan documentation, including loan modification, statements, call logs, voice recordings and other materials to determine whether the lender or mortgage servicer’s actions were consistent with industry guidelines.
 
Loan agreements are often an issue in litigation. Both the borrower and the lender are best served when there is a clear and mutual understanding of the risks. When there is a dispute, a banking expert can help the courts and parties involved by explaining the issues in a clear and concise manner.
