Trust An Attorney Who Values Their Clients
The right attorney can build a strong foreclosure defense based on the lender’s ability to adhere to procedure. For example, when a property is going to be foreclosed upon, the lender must go through a highly technical process with a long list of requirements. Common technical mistakes that an attorney can use for their defense include:
- Not fully disclosing fees and charges
- Predatory lending
- Lack of disclosure during the foreclosure process
- Lack of disclosure with loan terms
- Failure to negotiate in good faith
- Violating TILA and RESPA
- Lack of standing to bring foreclosure proceedings
- Inability to produce documentation
- Conflicting documentation
By negotiating with the financial institution that owns your loan, attorney Zirt may be able to modify the terms of your loan. Modifications may include lowering the interest rate, extending the duration of the repayment period, changing the type of loan or a combination of these actions. It can be difficult to get a loan modification without representation from a licensed attorney. Attorney Richard Zirt has extensive experience communicating with loan providers, and he knows what to do to achieve the best possible outcome for you.
