Over the course of many years, Petroff Amshen LLP has established the best practices to provide quality Brooklyn foreclosure information. A foreclosure defense lawyer helps homeowners obtain a successful mortgage modification. All Brooklyn homeowners should follow these rules:
Always Answer Legal Documents: When homeowners are served with an action for foreclosure, under immense stress, they may forget to prepare Answer to Foreclosure Complaint that was served upon them. It is of utmost importance to Answer with the time frame that is prescribed within the State of New York Civil Practice Law and Rules. A foreclosure defense lawyer will inform homeowners who are served personally, the time to Answer may be as short as 20 days.
Always Invoke All Available Defenses: In rush, homeowners may miss crucial defenses that are available to them. For example, defense of “standing” (defense that bank cannot sue because they do not have evidence that bank owns the loan) may be waived and homeowner, who otherwise would be successful in preventing the bank from getting their home and getting favorable terms for a loan modification, may be foreclosed on.
Always Make Court Appearances: Remember; if you are being summoned by the Court always be there. The Court is not your enemy. They understand your plight and in most cases clerks of the Court will be able to point you in the right direction. The Laws of the State of New York require attorneys for lenders to file Request for Judicial Intervention. Shortly, the Court will schedule Mandatory Foreclosure Settlement Conference where homeowner and bank’s attorney will have an opportunity to “negotiate a loan modification.” A foreclosure defense lawyer will navigate this process for homeowners.
Consult with a foreclosure defense lawyer and always Submit Documents That The Court Requires: Although it may be a daunting experience to constantly submit the same documents over and over and over again, homeowners cannot give up. Follow directions. If the Judge or Special Referee orders or directs a homeowner to provide tax returns, pay stubs, utility bills, leases, 4506T, or any other set of documents by a date certain, then do it. After submission to lender, confirm receipt, get a printout confirmation, and always write down the name of the person with whom you spoke.
