Financial Institutions
Lindgren, Callihan, Van Osdol & Co., Ltd. has firmly established itself as a leader in this industry, serving more than 130 financial institutions throughout Northern and Central Illinois, Eastern Iowa and Southern Wisconsin.
Financial Institutions constitute a specialized industry.

Our firm has acquired the specialized skills over the past 40 years through continuing professional education courses, seminars and extensive job experience with our financial institution clients. We provide a wide variety of highly specialized services to financial institutions ranging in total asset size from de novos to $1 billion in assets.
We continually update our professional library on new developments and maintain a current analysis of all regulations affecting financial institutions.
