Foreclosure Defense Attorney

Bankruptcy can stop foreclosure in its tracks. As the holder of the mortgage, you have more rights than you might realize and there are many procedural requirement before a lender can foreclose in California. State and federal law protects homeowners to a great extent. Banks and mortgage lenders are under specific regulations relating to the legal process required.

No matter how late in the foreclosure process your bank has progressed, you can stop the foreclosure sale by filing bankruptcy under Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. The day you file, an automatic stay of execution is placed against all collection actions, pending the outcome of the court’s ruling in your case. In some cases, you may not even need to file bankruptcy. There are mortgage modification measures available that can help you prevent foreclosure.
