Padgett Law Group Expands Service Footprint, Opens Pennsylvania Practice

[Tuesday, March 22, 2022 | Atlanta, GA] Padgett Law Group (PLG) today announced the firm has received its no-objection status from Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, clearing the final administrative task in entering the firm's newest state of full-service creditors' rights operations, Pennsylvania. 

The build-out of PLG's Pennsylvania operation has been led by Jacqueline F. McNally, Esq., Managing Attorney of Judicial Foreclosure. Ms. McNally joined PLG in July of 2021 and shortly thereafter was promoted to her current firm-wide leadership role.

"Entering a new state is an exciting endeavor and I'm very pleased with the team we've put in place to support our Pennsylvania operation. I look forward to this new practice expanding our service offerings to our clients and contributing to the growth of PLG," said Ms. McNally.

Ms. McNally has a long-standing reputation and legal career in the market. She previously managed the Pennsylvania and New Jersey operations of Schiller, Knapp, Lefkowitz & Hertzel, LLP; prior to that, she served as Chief Compliance Officer for Stern & Eisenberg, P.C., where she oversaw compliance matters across a 13-state footprint with over 40 attorneys under her purview. Ms. McNally has over a decade of experience in creditors' rights and is licensed to practice law in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New York, Georgia, and the District of Columbia.

“In addition to Jackie's firm-wide role leading our multi-state judicial foreclosure practice, we are thrilled to have added a state where she has years of experience, connections, and a deep understanding of the issues. Jackie brings the depth of legal knowledge and breadth of management experience that clients associate with PLG,” said Chief Development Officer Robyn Padgett.
