The phone was ringing off the hook. Over the last few months, Karen Garrett, a Bryan Cave regulatory specialist, was fielding calls on an almost daily basis from lawyers across her firm seeking advice on issues related to bank collapses.

Working with John Boyle, head of the firm’s client service group, Garrett put together a roster of firm clients in need of such a practice. This week, Bryan Cave officially launched its distressed financial institution practice.
