Norman Bobins, the former longtime leader of LaSalle Bank, has moved onto his next gig as the head of a new namesake consulting firm.
Norman Bobins Consultants LLC will work in alliance with DLA Piper to help expand the law firm's presence in the financial-services industry and serve as a resource to the firm's clients.
Bobins previously served as chairman and chief executive of LaSalle, which had been Chicago's No. 2 bank in deposit market share, and head of North American businesses for ABN Amro, LaSalle's Dutch owner.
He retired in December after a 40-year banking career and remains chairman emeritus of LaSalle, which on Oct. 1 was acquired by Bank of America Corp. in a deal that created Chicago's biggest bank. |

Class action or a representative action is a form of lawsuit in which a large group of people collectively bring a claim to court and/or in which a class of defendants is being sued. This form of collective lawsuit originated in the United States and is still predominantly a U.S. phenomenon, at least the U.S. variant of it. In the United States federal courts, class actions are governed by Federal Rules of Civil Procedure Rule. Since 1938, many states have adopted rules similar to the FRCP. However, some states like California have civil procedure systems which deviate significantly from the federal rules; the California Codes provide for four separate types of class actions. As a result, there are two separate treatises devoted solely to the complex topic of California class actions. Some states, such as Virginia, do not provide for any class actions, while others, such as New York, limit the types of claims that may be brought as class actions.
