With the new Homeowner’s Bill of Rights, effective January 1, 2013, California home owners now have new legal weapons to protect distressed homeowners from being wrongfully foreclosed upon. The new law was enacted to stem the tide of foreclosures and we know it inside and out.

Pre-Sale Litigation

If you received a notice of trustee’s sale and you home is about to be sold at a foreclosure auction, we can help. If you were wrongfully denied a loan modification we can help. If your lender/servicer is being uncooperative with providing you a good faith loan modification, we can help. If you had a forbearance, trial modification, or other agreement and your bank broke the new agreement we can help.

We have helped hundreds of families retain their homes with more affordable payments. We have successfully used various California statutes, including California Civil Code sections 2923.5 and 2924 to the homeowner’s advantage to obtain court orders to halt sales. Our usual strategy is to obtain a loan modification review as the result of sucessful civil litigation. If you wish, we’ll refer you to a recommended loan modification specialist to ensure that all the proper financial documentation is sent on time and accepted by your lender for review.

Post-Sale Litigation

If you have already lost your home we can represent you in eviction proceedings and sue lenders for wrongful foreclosures and possibly help you get your home back or repurchase it at a lower price.
