Smith, filed a more than nine-hundred-page long lawsuit today which states the predatory lending behaviors of several Defendants, including American Investors Group (AIG), Herring Bank, and others.

“Our extensive investigation uncovered a conspiracy that appears to primarily target African Americans churches. These types of legal fights too often go unfought, and many churches fall prey to companies seeking to take advantage of them. Our firm is more than equipped to advocate and fight. This is just wrong.” – Attorney David Dreyer, David Dreyer Law, LLC.
“It is a sad day when houses of worship are continuing to be targeted by predatory corporations seeking profit from communities of faith.” – Attorney Quinton Washington, Bell & Washington Law Firm
