Here's How We Stop Your Foreclosure

First, we immediately file the necessary paperwork to halt foreclosure proceedings. This gives us the breathing room to properly evaluate your case and explore all available options.

Next, we dive into your mortgage documents and the lender’s foreclosure filing. We’re looking for procedural errors, improper documentation, or violations of New York foreclosure law that can strengthen your position.

Then we negotiate directly with your lender. Whether that’s a loan modification to reduce your payments, a repayment plan to catch up on missed payments, or alternative solutions like a short sale, we handle all communication so you can focus on getting your finances back on track.

We can typically halt foreclosure proceedings within days of being retained. In New York, foreclosures must go through the court system, which gives us multiple opportunities to intervene. Once we file the appropriate legal responses and motions, the foreclosure process stops while we negotiate with your lender. The key is acting quickly – the sooner you contact us after receiving foreclosure notices, the more options we have available to protect your home.
Foreclosure defense focuses on stopping the legal process your lender started to take your home. This involves challenging their right to foreclose, fighting procedural errors, and buying time to explore solutions. Loan modification is negotiating new terms for your existing mortgage – typically lower payments, reduced interest rates, or extended repayment periods. Most successful cases use both strategies: we defend against the foreclosure while simultaneously negotiating a loan modification that makes your mortgage affordable long-term.
New York foreclosures typically take 90 days to several months because they must go through the court system. This timeline actually works in your favor – it provides multiple opportunities for intervention and negotiation. The process starts when your lender files a foreclosure complaint, followed by a mandatory settlement conference, then potential trial if no agreement is reached. Each step provides chances to stop the foreclosure through loan modifications, repayment plans, or other solutions.
Yes, being behind on payments doesn’t mean you’ll lose your home. Many successful foreclosure defense cases involve homeowners who were several months behind. The key is demonstrating to your lender that you can maintain modified payments going forward. We help by negotiating repayment plans, loan modifications, or other alternatives that bring your mortgage current while making future payments manageable. Even if you’ve received foreclosure notices, there’s still time to explore options that let you keep your home.
Bring your mortgage documents, recent payment statements, any foreclosure notices you’ve received, and financial information showing your current income and expenses. Also include correspondence from your lender, property tax records, and homeowner’s insurance information. Don’t worry if you don’t have everything – we can help you obtain missing documents. The most important thing is to schedule the consultation quickly, as foreclosure timelines move fast and early intervention provides the most options for saving your home.
Foreclosure defense fees vary based on your specific situation and the complexity of your case. Many foreclosure attorneys offer payment plans because we understand you’re facing financial challenges. The cost of legal representation is typically much less than losing your home’s equity to foreclosure. During your consultation, we’ll discuss fee structures and payment options that work for your budget. Remember, successful foreclosure defense or loan modification can save you tens of thousands of dollars in home equity and moving costs.
