Jamie Robertson

Jamie Robertson represents financial institutions and mortgage companies in bilateral and syndicated repurchase agreements and mortgage securities contracts that fit within Bankruptcy Code safe harbors for warehousing mortgage loans — whether residential, multifamily or other commercial, and in credit agreements to finance mortgage servicing rights (MSRs) and servicing advances. Board Certified in commercial real estate, his practice also includes large ranch and timberland transactions, acquisitions/dispositions, relationships and agreements between oil and gas lessees and surface owners, including surface use agreements, pipeline easements and other easements, and groundwater rights transactions, as well as development, financing, leasing and purchases, sales and exchanges of commercial and industrial properties.

His structuring and documentation of mortgage industry transactions was effective to shield Locke Lord’s institutional client groups he advised from the massive losses that others suffered in the industry meltdown that started in 2007.‎

He also counsels the world's largest nonprofit medical center in interpreting and applying its comprehensive restrictive covenants limiting use of medical center land to nonprofit purposes, and in other real estate matters.

Jamie’s real estate and finance law qualifications and experience earned him past positions on the boards of a nonprofit and a public company.
