The Firm
Years of Practice
Transactions Advised
We approach financial law as both craft and discipline.
Theodore Oliver was founded in 1998 on a simple premise: that financial institutions deserve counsel that understands not only the law, but the business realities that shape their decisions.
Our attorneys have served as regulators, in-house counsel, and trusted advisors to banks, investment firms, and financial technology companies. This experience informs everything we do.
We are not a generalist firm. We do not chase practice areas for growth. We remain focused on what we do best: providing thoughtful, effective counsel at the intersection of law and finance.
