What about foreclosures? I know I can file Ch 13 but are there other ways to defend against foreclosure?

Mortgage Foreclosure Defense is Complicated. You need an expert to help protect your property.

You can always stop a foreclosure sale by filing Ch 13. 

But Chapter 13 has many complications. It is a last resort and should be used only when you don't have any alternatives. What can you do if the foreclosure is wrongful? What if the lender isn't giving you credit for payments or has changed the amount of your escrow payments without an explanation. What if you are denied a loan modification when you should have been approved?

In these situations you need an expert in mortgage defense like my partner Judson Carusone. Check out his website which has valuable information about stopping a foreclosure without filing Chapter 13.

He has handled many cases and has stopped foreclosures, reinstated mortgages and recovered damages for wrongful foreclosure. Please give him a call and schedule a phone conference if you think your mortgage company is improperly doing something or refusing to do something with your mortgage. He'll be able to tell you if you have a case and what you can do if you do.
