Defense Against Foreclosure & Creditor Abuse
If you have received a notice of foreclosure, the time to act is now! Filing for bankruptcy may be able to protect your home, and it must be done before a foreclosure sale. Petitioning for bankruptcy puts an immediate legal standstill to collection agency harassment.
As skilled bankruptcy attorneys, we can inform you of your state and federal consumer rights and assertively protect them in court, if necessary. Credit counseling services may not be fully aware of all your rights, nor are they usually qualified to legally defend them.
