SAN RAMON, Calif., September 7, 2023 (VSNewsNetwork.com) - Shannon Leight, General Counsel of CMG Financial, has been prominently featured in the Summer 2023 Edition III of Vanguard Law Magazine. The digital publication, known for showcasing the diversity and capabilities of modern in-house counsel, highlighted Leight's role in the company's successful acquisition of a retail division from Homebridge Financial Services earlier this year.
Leight, who joined CMG Financial in 2021, was the sole in-house counsel involved in the significant retail acquisition. She managed key aspects of the deal, from drafting the letter of intent and discussing buyer must-haves to finalizing financial details and due diligence. Her extensive involvement facilitated a seamless integration between the two companies.
Neil Cote, the author of the Vanguard feature, noted that Leight has adeptly navigated the ever-changing landscape of the mortgage industry. "It's always a challenge," says Leight, "to stay at least in line with market conditions."
Her role at CMG Financial extends beyond legal counsel, as she collaborates with sales, marketing, compliance, and leadership teams. "I am fortunate to have the opportunity to work with inspiring leadership and to grow professionally alongside CMG," said Leight. She has been vital in ensuring that CMG stays compliant with industry regulations, while still pushing for innovation and technological advancement.
CMG Financial, a privately held mortgage banking firm, has seen approximately 48% growth over the past year. "Shannon has been instrumental to our growth and success over the past few years," said Kim Callas, Executive VP, Chief Operating Officer at CMG. "We're thankful to have her on our side as we continue to navigate the constant changes within the market."
