Founded by competitive triathlete and marathoner, Mitch Pollack, Mitchell Pollack and Associates prides itself on “destroying liars.” It is a bold claim, but we love commercial and business litigation. Our competitive nature permeates everything we do. Our singular goal is to win for our clients while at all times adhering to the highest ethical standards. We immerse ourselves in the nuances of the law that can make a marked difference in the outcome of a trial or settlement. We reverse engineer the problem and create solutions for our clients. The firm has been representing credit unions of all asset sizes since 1989 and Mitch has been lead counsel on complex litigation matters including: shareholder (member) bylaw disputes, breach of contract actions, discrimination defense, defamation actions, regulatory disputes, fidelity bond litigation and the defense of claims asserted under various state and federal consumer statutes. We understand what keeps our clients up at night. CEOs of Credit Unions may be concerned about internal and external fraud, cyber-security or employment law claims. We are proactive and follow the old adage that an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. We can assist you before the problem occurs. However, we are also confident we can render vital assistance after a problem has already arisen. We have litigated claims in various State and Federal courts both at the trial and appellate levels and in alternative dispute resolution forums including arbitration. A number of our cases have been reported in news publications. In 2012 we had the first reported appellate level decision in the nation, which held that an Article 78 proceeding cannot be asserted against a federally chartered credit union. Our firm also offers more basic services for our credit union clients in connection with mortgage lending, foreclosure litigation, contract drafting and regulatory and contract reviews.
