Avoid Foreclosure with
Our Help

You have bought a house and worked hard to make it a home. However, due to circumstances likely beyond your control, you have fallen on mortgage payments, and now the bank is threatening to foreclose.

If you find yourself facing foreclosure, all is not lost. Our team can employ a variety of strategies that can stop foreclosure and help you keep your home. Chapter 13 bankruptcy can help you reorganize your finances and discharge certain types of debt. Any imminent or in-progress foreclosures must generally cease for the duration of your filing. If bankruptcy does not make sense for your situation, we can also pursue loan modifications, short sales, forbearance agreements, and more.

We will never give up when fighting to save your home. Our team will sit down with you and thoroughly review each of your options. We can help weigh the pros and cons of each approach and provide advice that will help you make an informed decision.
