Mark K. Rabidoux, PLC

Serving Lenders and Brokers Nationwide

Mortgage Attorney

Compliance • Purchases and Sales • MortgageLicenses

My practice is devoted entirely to mortgage law. I assist individuals and their employers throughout the United States who seek mortgage lender, broker, and loan officer licensing and registration. I also advise banks, mortgage companies, credit unions, and other financial institutions on federal and state mortgage law compliance, and I provide counsel on employment issues relating to the mortgage industry and other issues such as net branching concepts and joint ventures between real estate brokers, lenders, and title agents.  I have helped entrepreneurs create new companies and have handled mergers and acquisitions.

Extensive Mortgage Law Experience
Since 1981, I have practiced as in-house or outside counsel for mortgage bankers and financial institutions. I have worked for both large and small mortgage companies, including Advance Mortgage Company Ltd. (at the time the seventh largest mortgage company in the United States);  Regency Savings Bank FSB in Ann Arbor, Michigan; and Independence One Mortgage Corporation (Michigan National Corporation), a top 25 mortgage banker.

In 1994, I joined the Detroit, Michigan, firm of Jaffe, Raitt, Heuer & Weiss, PC, as a partner, representing mortgage companies and title agencies. In 2002, I joined the regulatory compliance group of Trott & Trott, PC, as supervising attorney. I opened my own practice, Mark K. Rabidoux, PLC, in March of 2005.

Professional Memberships and Qualifications
I have served on board of governors of the Michigan Mortgage Lenders Association, including president of its Southeast Michigan Chapter and as a member of the association's legislative committee. I have also served on the board of the Michigan Mortgage Brokers Association. In October 2004, I was awarded the Certified Mortgage Banker designation by the Mortgage Bankers Association of America, one of only a handful of lawyers nationally who hold that designation. I am a frequent lecturer on mortgage compliance issues, particularly those arising from the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act ("RESPA").
