Verrill Attorney Mark Googins Co-Authors Maine Commercial Lending Handbook
Tower Publishing
Verrill attorney Mark Googins has co-authored the Maine Commercial Lending Handbook (Second Edition), published March 2026.
A trusted, practical guide for commercial lenders and their counsel, the book walks readers through the commercial loan process from start to finish—from loan planning and borrower selection to collateral, entity authority, and closing. The second edition significantly updates and expands the original work, reflecting recent developments in Maine law and modern lending practice.
This publication has been widely praised by lenders and legal practitioners as an essential, practical guide to commercial lending in Maine. As Professor Andrew M. Kaufman of the University of Maine School of Law notes, the book “belongs on the desk of every commercial lender and lawyer representing commercial borrowers and lenders in Maine.”
