Hollis Foreclosure Defense Attorney

We Know New York Foreclosure Law

We have been protecting homeowners throughout Queens and Long Island when their mortgages become unmanageable. We understand the local court system, the judges, and exactly how foreclosure proceedings work in New York.

You’re not getting a general practice attorney who handles foreclosures on the side. You’re getting focused expertise in mortgage law, loan modifications, and foreclosure defense strategies that actually work in New York courts.

We’ve seen what happens when homeowners try to handle this alone. It rarely ends well. But we’ve also seen what’s possible when you have the right legal strategy from the start.

Foreclosure Defense Process

Here's How We Stop Foreclosure

First, we review your foreclosure documents and mortgage history. Most lenders make mistakes in their paperwork, and those mistakes can halt proceedings entirely. We look for improper notices, documentation errors, and violations of your rights.

Next, we file the appropriate legal responses to buy you time and negotiate from strength. This isn’t about stalling—it’s about creating space to find real solutions. We communicate directly with your lender’s attorneys while you focus on your family and work.

Then we explore every option available. Sometimes that’s a loan modification that reduces your payments. Sometimes it’s challenging the foreclosure on legal grounds. Sometimes it’s negotiating a timeline that works for your situation. We’ll tell you honestly what’s possible and what isn’t.

Foreclosure Help and Loan Modification

Complete Foreclosure Defense Services

You get full legal representation throughout the foreclosure process. We handle all court appearances, document filings, and negotiations with your lender. No surprises, no hidden fees, no wondering what’s happening with your case.

We also handle loan modification applications properly. Most homeowners who try this alone get denied because they don’t present their financial situation correctly. We know what lenders want to see and how to structure your request for approval.

If your case requires foreclosure litigation, we’re prepared for that too. We’ll challenge improper procedures, negotiate settlements, and fight for your rights in court when necessary. You won’t face this alone.

We can often halt foreclosure proceedings within days of being retained, depending on where you are in the process. If you haven’t received a foreclosure summons yet, we have more options and time to work with. Once you’re served with foreclosure papers, you typically have 20-30 days to respond in New York, but acting immediately gives us the best chance to stop the process and negotiate alternatives. The key is calling as soon as you receive any foreclosure notices, not waiting until the last minute.
Foreclosure defense focuses on stopping the legal proceedings your lender has started to take your home. This involves challenging their paperwork, filing legal responses, and buying time to explore options. Loan modification is negotiating changes to your original mortgage terms—like reducing payments, extending the loan term, or lowering interest rates. We often use both strategies together: defending against foreclosure while simultaneously negotiating a loan modification that makes your payments affordable long-term.
Our fees depend on the complexity of your case and what services you need. We offer payment plans because we understand you’re already facing financial stress. Many clients find that our fees are far less than what they’d lose in home equity if foreclosure proceeds. We’re transparent about costs upfront—no surprise bills or hidden fees. During your consultation, we’ll explain exactly what representation will cost and work with you on a payment structure that makes sense for your situation.
Yes, being behind on payments doesn’t mean you’ll lose your home. We regularly help homeowners who are several months behind get back on track through loan modifications, payment plans, or other arrangements with their lender. The key is acting before foreclosure proceedings advance too far. Even if you’ve received foreclosure papers, we can often negotiate solutions that let you keep your home while catching up on missed payments over time.
If your lender refuses to modify your loan, we examine their foreclosure case for legal defenses. Many foreclosures have procedural errors, improper documentation, or violations of your rights that can stop the process entirely. We also explore other options like short sales, deed in lieu arrangements, or challenging the foreclosure in court. Sometimes lenders become more willing to negotiate when they realize their case has problems. We’ll fight for the best possible outcome, even when initial negotiations fail.
New York foreclosures typically take 12-18 months from start to finish, but this timeline can vary significantly based on your lender’s efficiency and whether you have legal representation. The process involves multiple steps: pre-foreclosure notices, filing the lawsuit, serving papers, waiting for your response, court proceedings, and potentially a foreclosure sale. Having an attorney can extend this timeline legally while we work on alternatives, giving you more time to save your home or prepare for other options.
