James Brody

Founder & Managing Partner
Brody Gapp

As the Founder and Managing Partner of Brody Gapp LLP, I bring more than two decades of national experience at the intersection of complex litigation, regulatory compliance, and high-stakes financial disputes. My career has been defined by navigating the ever-evolving mortgage banking and financial services landscape, ensuring that leading institutions remain protected and positioned for success.

I have been privileged to represent hundreds of different IMBs, credit unions, depositories, brokers and other financial service related entities, from those just barely making net worth to those that are the largest in their class—across a wide spectrum of mission-critical matters.

Before founding Brody Gapp LLP, I co-founded and built the American Mortgage Law Group, led the Mortgage Banking Litigation & Compliance Practice at Johnston Thomas, and served as a Senior Litigation Partner at Garris Horn LLP after agreeing to merge my litigation practice in an effort to expand its capabilities from compliance to formidable litigation and risk defense.

Recognized nationally as a speaker and thought leader, I stay ahead of regulatory trends, market shifts, and industry pressures that shape financial institutions today. My insights have been featured in Mortgage Compliance Magazine, National Mortgage Professional, Scotsman Guide, The Wall Street Journal, and other leading publications. At Brody Gapp, my mission is to empower clients with the legal foresight and advocacy they need to navigate complexity with confidence.
