Complete Foreclosure Defense and Loan Modification

You get full legal representation from day one. We handle all communication with your lender, file all court documents, and appear at every hearing on your behalf.

Our foreclosure defense includes challenging improper documentation, robo-signed documents, and violations of foreclosure procedures. Many foreclosures can be stopped or delayed simply because lenders didn’t follow the rules.

We also negotiate loan modifications that actually make sense for your budget. Not the cookie-cutter modifications that set you up to fail, but real solutions that give you a fresh start.

When bankruptcy makes sense, we’ll tell you. When it doesn’t, we’ll tell you that too. You get honest advice about all your options, not just the ones that make us more money.

How quickly can you stop my foreclosure in East Brentwood?

We can often halt foreclosure proceedings within days of being retained, depending on where you are in the process. The key is acting fast once you receive that first foreclosure notice. New York requires judicial foreclosure, which means your lender must go through the courts, giving us multiple opportunities to intervene. If you’re facing an immediate sale date, we can file emergency motions to stop the sale while we challenge the foreclosure. The sooner you call, the more options we have to protect your home.

What if I can't afford a foreclosure lawyer right now?

We understand you’re already facing financial hardship, which is why we offer flexible payment arrangements for foreclosure defense. Many clients pay us in installments rather than a large upfront fee. Consider this: the cost of losing your home far exceeds the cost of legal representation. We’ll also explore whether your lender should pay your attorney fees if they’ve violated foreclosure procedures. Don’t let cost prevent you from getting help when your home is on the line.

Can you really get my mortgage payment lowered through loan modification?

Yes, but not every case qualifies for loan modification, and not every modification offer is worth taking. We review your financial situation and negotiate with your lender for terms that actually work for your budget. This might mean reducing your interest rate, extending your loan term, or even reducing your principal balance in some cases. We’ve seen too many homeowners accept modifications they couldn’t afford and end up in foreclosure again six months later. We make sure any modification gives you a real chance at success.

What mistakes do lenders make that can stop my foreclosure?

Lenders make more mistakes than you’d expect. Common issues include improper notice procedures, missing or forged documents, robo-signed affidavits, and failure to follow New York’s strict foreclosure timeline requirements. We also see cases where the lender doesn’t actually own your mortgage or can’t prove they have the right to foreclose. Many foreclosures involve mortgage servicers who don’t have proper documentation or authority to act. We examine every document in your case looking for these errors, because even small procedural mistakes can invalidate a foreclosure.

Should I consider bankruptcy to stop my foreclosure?

Bankruptcy can immediately stop foreclosure through the automatic stay, but it’s not right for everyone. Chapter 13 bankruptcy allows you to catch up on missed payments over 3-5 years while keeping your home. Chapter 7 might eliminate other debts, freeing up money for your mortgage payment. However, bankruptcy affects your credit and has long-term consequences. We’ll analyze your complete financial picture to determine if bankruptcy helps or hurts your situation. Sometimes foreclosure defense alone is enough; other times bankruptcy provides the fresh start you need.

How long does the foreclosure process take in New York?

New York’s judicial foreclosure process typically takes 12-18 months from the first notice to actual sale, but it can take longer if the case is contested. This timeline works in your favor because it gives us time to fight the foreclosure and negotiate alternatives. The process includes mandatory settlement conferences where we can negotiate directly with your lender. Unlike states with non-judicial foreclosure, New York requires court approval at every step, giving us multiple opportunities to challenge the proceedings and protect your rights as a homeowner.
