We can often halt foreclosure proceedings within days of being retained, depending on where you are in the process. New York’s judicial foreclosure system requires court approval, which gives us multiple opportunities to intervene. If you’ve received a foreclosure notice, time is critical, but it’s rarely too late to take action. Even if a foreclosure sale date has been set, we can frequently obtain emergency court orders to stop the sale while we address the underlying issues with your lender.
Foreclosure defense involves challenging the legal proceedings in court, often by identifying errors in documentation or procedure that can stop or delay the foreclosure. Loan modification focuses on negotiating new terms with your lender to make payments affordable long-term. We typically pursue both strategies simultaneously – defending against the foreclosure while negotiating a permanent solution. This dual approach gives you the strongest position and most options for keeping your home.
Absolutely. Being behind on payments doesn’t mean foreclosure is inevitable. New York law provides several opportunities to cure defaults and reinstate your mortgage. We can negotiate repayment plans, loan modifications, or forbearance agreements that bring your account current. Even if you can’t afford the current payment, lenders often prefer modification to foreclosure because it’s less expensive for them. The key is acting quickly and having experienced legal representation to navigate the negotiation process.
Legal fees vary based on your case complexity, but we understand you’re facing financial hardship. We offer flexible payment arrangements and will discuss all costs upfront with no surprises. Many clients find that the money saved through loan modification or avoiding foreclosure far exceeds legal fees. We also explore whether your lender may be required to pay attorney fees if we identify violations of foreclosure procedures. The initial consultation allows us to assess your situation and provide clear fee information.
Even when foreclosure can’t be prevented entirely, we can often negotiate alternatives that protect your financial future. Short sales allow you to sell for less than you owe while avoiding foreclosure on your credit report. Deed-in-lieu arrangements let you transfer the property voluntarily while potentially receiving relocation assistance. Cash-for-keys agreements provide moving money and additional time. These alternatives are significantly better for your credit score and future home-buying ability than completed foreclosure.
Yes, having legal representation during loan modification is crucial. Lenders often offer modifications that aren’t in your best interest or contain terms that could cause problems later. We review all modification offers to ensure they’re truly affordable and sustainable. We also know how to present your financial information in the most favorable light and can appeal denials. Many homeowners accept inadequate modifications out of desperation, only to face foreclosure again when the new terms prove unworkable.
