Experienced Foreclosure Defense Attorney

We Know Queens Courts Inside Out

We have spent years representing homeowners throughout Queens County, including right here in Rockaway Park. We understand the local court system, the judges, and exactly how foreclosure cases move through the system.

We’ve seen what works and what doesn’t. We know which mortgage companies will negotiate and which ones need pressure. Most importantly, we know that every day counts when your home is on the line.

You’re not getting a law firm that treats foreclosure like any other legal matter. You’re getting attorneys who understand that your home represents everything you’ve worked for.

Foreclosure Defense Process Explained

Here's Exactly What Happens Next

First, we review every document in your foreclosure case. Mortgage companies make mistakes constantly – missing signatures, improper notices, calculation errors. When we find these problems, we use them to challenge the entire foreclosure.

Next, we file the necessary paperwork to stop the foreclosure proceedings immediately. This gives you breathing room and forces the mortgage company to prove they have the right to take your home.

Then we negotiate. Most mortgage companies would rather modify your loan than go through expensive foreclosure proceedings. We push for reduced payments, interest rate cuts, or adding missed payments to the end of your loan. If negotiation doesn’t work, we’re prepared to fight in court and make them prove every aspect of their case.

Every Tool Available to Save Homes

You get a complete foreclosure defense strategy tailored to your specific situation. We handle emergency motions to stop sheriff sales, negotiate loan modifications directly with your lender, and challenge any procedural errors in your foreclosure case.

We also explore alternatives you might not know exist. Chapter 13 bankruptcy can stop foreclosure and give you up to five years to catch up on missed payments. Deed in lieu arrangements can help you avoid foreclosure damage to your credit if keeping the home isn’t possible.

For Rockaway Park residents still dealing with Hurricane Sandy aftermath or flood insurance issues affecting their mortgage, we understand these unique challenges and how they impact foreclosure cases. We work with the reality of your situation, not textbook solutions that don’t fit real life.

A person in business attire holds a calculator, pointing towards it with a pen, embodying the focus of a foreclosure attorney. On the desk are two small model houses, a laptop, and a clipboard with paper. The brightly lit room with large windows underscores their expertise in Real Estate Law.
We can often stop foreclosure proceedings within 24-48 hours by filing emergency motions with the court. The exact timing depends on where your case stands – if a sheriff sale is scheduled for next week, we move immediately. If you’re still in early stages, we have more time to build a comprehensive defense strategy. The key is calling us as soon as you receive foreclosure papers, not waiting until the last minute when options become limited.
Your chances depend on several factors: your current income, how far behind you are on payments, and your mortgage company’s policies. We’ve successfully negotiated modifications that reduced monthly payments by hundreds of dollars, lowered interest rates, and added missed payments to the end of loans. Mortgage companies often prefer modification over foreclosure because it’s cheaper for them. Having an attorney negotiate increases your chances significantly because we know what terms are realistic and how to present your case effectively.
Yes, filing Chapter 13 bankruptcy immediately stops all foreclosure proceedings through something called the automatic stay. This gives you up to five years to catch up on missed mortgage payments while keeping your home. Chapter 7 bankruptcy also stops foreclosure temporarily, but doesn’t provide a long-term solution for keeping your house. We analyze your income, debts, and goals to determine if bankruptcy makes sense for your situation or if other foreclosure defense strategies would work better.
We offer free consultations to review your case and explain your options. Legal fees vary based on the complexity of your situation and which services you need. We understand you’re facing financial hardship, so we work with payment plans that fit your budget. Many clients find that the money saved through loan modifications or stopping foreclosure far exceeds legal fees. We’re transparent about costs upfront – no surprise bills when you’re already dealing with financial stress.
Mortgage companies often ignore homeowners who call directly, but they take attorneys seriously. We know the right departments to contact, the proper procedures to follow, and how to document everything properly. When mortgage companies see legal representation, they understand you’re serious about fighting the foreclosure. We also know which companies genuinely negotiate and which ones just go through the motions. If negotiation fails, we’re prepared to challenge their foreclosure case in court and make them prove every aspect of their claim.
It’s not too late until your home is actually sold at sheriff sale, and even then, you may have redemption rights. New York’s foreclosure process takes months or even years, giving us time to build your defense. The earlier you call, the more options we have, but we’ve helped homeowners even in late stages of foreclosure. Don’t assume it’s hopeless because you’ve been served papers or missed court dates. We can often get cases back on track and negotiate solutions even when things look dire.
