Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in New Jersey

Hi,

I am working remotely for a Fintech startup where we lend to ecommerce businesses in the US. And I am tasked to research what else we might need before we operate.

I'd like to ask if we need a legal opinion letter of any sort to reflect that we are not charging usury rates. If so, who should we address it to and what kind of legal opinion letters we would need.

Can you help me?

Thanks

Yda

You may need opinion letters but more importantly you need to formulate and post company policies as well as post terms of use / terms of service that are applicable to the type of financial services the company provides to ensure compliance with various Federal and state laws.

This needs to be done in conjunction with an attorney review of the business model of the company and the services it provides. Please have the principals of the company contact me directly.
