Here's Exactly How We Stop Foreclosure

First, we review your foreclosure notice and mortgage documents to identify any procedural errors or violations. Banks make mistakes more often than you’d think, and these mistakes can stop foreclosure proceedings entirely.

Next, we contact your lender immediately to negotiate. This might mean requesting a loan modification to reduce your payments, negotiating a repayment plan for missed payments, or exploring other loss mitigation options.

If negotiation isn’t enough, we file the necessary legal responses to contest the foreclosure in court. New York’s judicial process requires the bank to prove they have the right to foreclose and followed all proper procedures.

Throughout this process, we handle all communication with your lender, servicer, and their attorneys. You don’t have to navigate confusing phone trees or decode legal documents. We speak their language and know what they’re required to do under New York law.

Complete Foreclosure Defense and Loan Solutions

Our foreclosure defense includes reviewing your entire mortgage file for violations of federal and state lending laws. Many foreclosures can be stopped or delayed when lenders haven’t followed proper procedures.

We negotiate directly with your mortgage servicer for loan modifications that reduce your monthly payment to something you can actually afford. This often involves reducing the interest rate, extending the loan term, or even reducing the principal balance.

For homeowners with multiple debts beyond their mortgage, we evaluate whether Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 bankruptcy makes sense as part of the foreclosure defense strategy. Bankruptcy can eliminate other debts and provide additional time to catch up on mortgage payments.

We also explore every available government program, from HARP refinancing to local housing assistance programs specific to Suffolk County residents.

We can often stop foreclosure proceedings within days of being hired, depending on where you are in the process. If you haven’t received a court summons yet, we have more options and time to negotiate with your lender. Once you receive a foreclosure summons, we typically have 20-30 days to file an answer and contest the foreclosure in court. Even if you’re close to a foreclosure sale date, we can often get emergency court orders to halt the sale while we negotiate or challenge the foreclosure. The key is acting immediately – every day matters in foreclosure defense.
Loan modification changes the terms of your existing mortgage to make payments more affordable – usually by reducing the interest rate, extending the loan term, or reducing the principal balance. Foreclosure defense is the legal process of challenging the bank’s right to foreclose in court. Often, we use both strategies together. We’ll contest the foreclosure in court to buy time while simultaneously negotiating a loan modification with your lender. If the modification gets approved, the foreclosure case gets dismissed. If not, we continue fighting the foreclosure on legal grounds. This dual approach gives you the best chance of keeping your home.
Absolutely, and this is actually the best time to contact us. Before foreclosure proceedings begin, we have more negotiating power and options available. We can contact your lender immediately to discuss forbearance, repayment plans, or loan modifications before they file foreclosure paperwork. Many lenders prefer to work out payment solutions rather than go through expensive foreclosure proceedings. We can also review your mortgage documents for any violations that might give us leverage in negotiations. Acting before you receive foreclosure papers often leads to better outcomes and less stress for your family.
Our fees vary depending on the complexity of your case and what services you need. We offer several payment options because we understand you’re already facing financial difficulties. Many clients pay a portion upfront and then make monthly payments while we work on their case. Some clients use money they save by not making mortgage payments during the foreclosure process to pay legal fees. We’re transparent about all costs upfront and will work with you to find a payment arrangement that fits your situation. The cost of legal representation is typically much less than losing your home and having to find new housing.
Even if keeping the house long-term isn’t possible, we can often negotiate alternatives that are much better than foreclosure. Short sales allow you to sell the house for less than you owe and walk away without deficiency judgment. Deed in lieu of foreclosure lets you voluntarily transfer the property to the lender and avoid the foreclosure process entirely. Cash for keys programs provide relocation money in exchange for leaving the property in good condition. These alternatives protect your credit score much better than completed foreclosure and give you more control over the timeline and terms of leaving your home.
We handle foreclosure cases throughout Suffolk County, including Holbrook, Ronkonkoma, Sayville, Bohemia, Oakdale, and surrounding communities. Our office location in this area means we’re familiar with the local courts, judges, and procedures that affect your case. We also understand the local real estate market and property values, which helps in negotiating loan modifications and short sales. Whether your case is in Riverhead court or another Suffolk County courthouse, we know the system and can represent you effectively. Distance is never an issue for foreclosure defense – we’ll travel wherever your case needs to be handled.
