Fight Back, Save Your Home, Breathe Easy Again

Facing a missed mortgage payment?
Don’t panic. There’s a better way forward. The pressure from your lender is real, but losing your home isn’t your only option. Illinois and federal laws offer powerful defenses you can leverage to stop foreclosure and find a better solution that goes beyond simply catching up on payments.

We can help you:

  • Modify your mortgage: Negotiate a more manageable payment plan.
  • Challenge unfair practices: Hold lenders accountable for illegal or misleading actions.
  • Buy valuable time: Delay foreclosure proceedings while you explore options.

Facing an unfair mortgage situation?

You’re not alone.

While the law often tilts towards banks, an experienced foreclosure defense attorney can level the playing field. Remember that stack of paperwork you signed at closing? It contains strict guidelines for lenders, and mistakes happen. Errors in chain of title, lender standing, and securitization processes are unfortunately common.

We don’t play defense. We proactively challenge lenders to prove their case by:

  • Demanding the original mortgage note.
  • Verifying their legal standing for foreclosure.
  • Exposing Truth in Lending Act violations and potential rescission rights.
  • Uncovering predatory lending practices and unfair servicing.
  • Identifying fraudulent activities.
  • Investigating any errors in the chain of assignment.
  • Challenging the classification of your loan (residential vs. commercial).
  • Holding lenders accountable for incomplete or incorrect documentation.
  • Invalidating expired guarantees and sureties.

Don’t settle for less. We fight for your home and your rights.

Our experienced foreclosure defense team understands the pressure you’re under.
