DALLAS, Nov. 30, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Bradley Arant Boult Cummings LLP is pleased to announce that Jera L. Bradshaw has joined the firm's Dallas office as counsel in the Banking & Financial Services Practice Group.

Ms. Bradshaw brings more than 13 years of experience advising banks and their regulators on a wide range of regulatory, compliance, and transactional matters.

She also provided legal advice on a wide range of federal banking laws and regulations applicable to bank activities such as transactions between affiliates, equity investments, loans to insiders, and mergers and acquisitions. She began her banking regulatory career as an attorney with the Tennessee Department of Financial Institutions, providing legal counsel on legislation, laws, and policy affecting financial institutions in Tennessee.

"Adding Jera to our team continues Bradley's long-standing commitment to offering high-quality, practical legal advice to our banking and financial services clients in Texas and across the country," said Robert Maddox, chair of Bradley's Banking and Financial Services Practice Group. "Jera's background as both a regulator and as a key member of the in-house counsel team for lending banks will prove to be invaluable to our clients."

A graduate of the University of Memphis Cecil C. Humphreys School of Law, Ms. Bradshaw received her B.A. from Rhodes College. She is an active member of the Junior League of Dallas.

Bradley's Banking & Financial Services Practice Group counsels financial services clients on their unique and particularly complex legal needs, whether those pertain to litigation, regulations and compliance, corporate matters, or other operational matters that banks may face on a daily basis.
