What Happens After Hiring A Foreclosure Attorney?

You'll meet again with the attorney to further discuss your situation and how they can best help you. You may have a lot of questions, so make sure you write them down beforehand to make it easier for both of you. The next step will be case review which involves looking over all relevant information about your foreclosure: loan documents, appraisal reports, mortgage details, payment history, etc.


Then you will more than likely discuss the possible courses of action and what are their advantages or disadvantages, as well as how much time each one would take to pursue. You'll be offered with an estimate on fees based on your situation and given a list of documents needed for the initial stages, such as bank statements; tax returns, financial situations, employment status and history as well as many other things that will be relevant for your case.


You will then go over the next steps for your case, such as what's going to happen with the property if you lose; how long it takes from beginning to end of a foreclosure defense process, and alternatives to foreclosure (such as loan modification). You'll also learn about possible risks and/or rewards associated with these solutions. You will even discuss other possible options such as bankruptcy and if it would benefit your particular situation. Many people see bankruptcy as a bad thing, but for a lot of cases, it can be a very beneficial situation to make moving forward in life a great deal easier.


Once this is done, your foreclosure defense attorney will begin to chart the course of your case and let you know the best path to take.

Many good Florida foreclosure defense lawyers will provide an initial consultation free of charge and there are some that offer solutions like a loan modification or short sale without charging anything upfront. The process can be very slow or very fast (anywhere from six months to two years) depending on the severity of your case and how quickly you are willing to make compromises.


Some good foreclosure defense lawyers in Florida will offer an initial consultation free of charge with no obligation, which is a great way for them to assess your situation before they begin working on it as well as a great way for you to feel them out as well.

An individual should not feel pressured to sign anything during an initial consultation. Most foreclosure defense lawyers will be able to work with you to come up with a plan that best suits your situation without charging any money for the first meeting.

If there is a chance of getting into a short sale or loan modification, a good Florida defense lawyer will be able to help you with these.
