Her practice includes state and federal regulatory compliance, real estate finance, warehouse lending and the secondary mortgage market, business planning and management, and other transactional and regulatory needs of lenders and loan servicers.

 

Ms. Gustafson obtained her Juris Doctorate degree from Stanford Law School in 1977 and earned her Bachelor's degree from Stanford University as a member of Phi Beta Kappa in 1973. After commencing her career in private practice with a prominent Southern California law firm, she joined the legal department of Columbia Savings and Loan in 1983, where she was the primary in-house counsel for that institution's savings, lending and administrative divisions providing a wide range of regulatory, real estate finance and general business services.

 

Throughout her years at Columbia, Ms. Gustafson was the lead counsel for all of Columbia's secondary marketing activities. In early 1991, she returned to private practice where she has concentrated on representing mortgage banking institutions.

 

Ms. Gustafson's current representation of mortgage bankers and originators includes a wide range of federal and state consumer regulatory compliance matters, including Regulation Z, ECOA, HMDA, CRA, RESPA, Fair Lending regulations, appraisals, asset classification and parallel state requirements, and Department of Real Estate matters.

She also has extensive experience in loan fraud investigations and trouble shooting, and commercial real estate loan documentation.
