EB-5 developer's attorney may face sanctions for not properly vetting investor-settlement loan

In 2021, the attorney for the developers assured the court that a loan had been procured, but the loan turned out to be illegitimate and the investors were never paid. A federal judge says that the developer's attorney, Daniel G. Hildebrand, "buried his head in the sand" despite many red flags and chose not to confirm the legitimacy of the loan.
