In California, when a borrower falls behind, a lender cannot move forward with the foreclosure unless they first try to contact the borrower and suggest options that might help save the home. If your lender told you to apply for a loan modification and continue to move forward with the foreclosure, our lawyers can immediately stop foreclosure in Los Angeles and throughout California.

How to Stop the Foreclosure Process

We recommend that people file for bankruptcy as it is the most effective way to immediately stop the banks from the sale of a property. If you are in danger of losing your property, talk to our lawyers today and get free legal advice to save your home. Call 818-254-8413 today and see if bankruptcy is an option for you.

Filing Bankruptcy

Bankruptcy is the most effective way to stop foreclosure and get debt relief. If you are facing foreclosure, we advise struggling homeowners to take back control of their financial situation by getting protection from a court.

Bankruptcy provides a fresh start for homeowners who have missed payments for their homes or cars. After filing bankruptcy homeowners can make monthly payments in a payment plan to get caught up and save their homes. Call 818-254-8413 and talk to our experienced attorneys to see if bankruptcy makes sense for you.

Bankruptcy Relief as Foreclosure Defense

The bankruptcy process makes it possible to automatically stop a home from being sold by a bank and auto repossession from moving forward. Bankruptcy relief also wipes out credit card debt and stops all collections immediately.

For homeowners facing financial crises due to job loss or medical bills, bankruptcy makes it possible to reinstate your loan balance for homes and cars while keeping your personal belongings and savings. If you are in danger of losing your property, our foreclosure defense attorneys can stop your foreclosure sale immediately!

Have You Missed Mortgage Payments?

If you have missed 3 or more mortgage payments, your lender can immediately start formal foreclosure proceedings by sending a notice of default. If you have already received a notice of default, you must either make additional payments to catch up or you can try to work out a payment plan with your bank. If the bank is not willing to work with you, our lawyer can advise you about the next steps.

Did You Apply for a Loan Modification?

One common method of foreclosure prevention is to request a loan modification. There are other foreclosure alternatives such as a forbearance agreement or a short sale, but these alternatives are subject to the bank’s approval.

When a lender agrees to help a homeowner prevent foreclosure, they may approve a forbearance agreement and suspend foreclosure activity or accept a loan modification. In the event that a short sale occurs, the bank is more involved in valuation, and it can take more time for approvals.

When to Contact a Los Angeles Foreclosure Attorney

If This Happened to You, Call 818-254-8413 for Foreclosure help

• You fell behind on mortgage payments and your lender is giving you misleading information about your options to save your home
• You have applied for a loan modification and your lender is sending you foreclosure notices at the same time
• Your lender lied to you about stopping foreclosure while you were being reviewed for a modification.

Many homeowners find themselves in the foreclosure process, whether they just received a Notice of Default from their lender or just received a Notice of Sale with an auction date scheduled in the next couple of weeks. These homeowners’ main concern is how to stop foreclosure in Los Angeles.

Our Stop Foreclosure Attorneys in Los Angeles can Help You:

• Save your home from foreclosure
• Stop the foreclosure process while you are in review for a modification
• Discuss other options for saving the home or entering into a payment plan to catch up

Each case is unique; if the facts of your case present a strong legal case and you have an active sale date, then you can file a lawsuit followed by an application for a temporary restraining order requesting the Judge to sign an order to stop foreclosure given the pending lawsuit.

There are many examples of strong cases, such as when the lender breaches a contract the borrower signed or the lender forecloses while the borrower is in an active loan modification review for a mortgage modification.

The Most Common Home Foreclosure Lender Violations

In California, foreclosures are usually non-judicial proceedings. That means borrowers receive a Notice of Default providing 90 days to cure the amount in default and reinstate their loan. If the loan is not brought current, then the trustee will send the borrower a Notice of Trustee Sale.

The notice of trustee sale will have a date and time of the foreclosure auction approximately 20 days from the date of the notice. As an alternative to avoid foreclosure, a homeowner may apply for a modification or short sale, or they may be able to negotiate a deed in lieu of foreclosure with their lender.

The majority of stop foreclosure cases our firm handles are primary residences. Rental properties or commercial properties may also go through a foreclosure, however, these properties have slightly fewer protective laws covering them since they are not primary residences.

Our Prior Successful Foreclosure Lawsuits

In Mushin v. Bank of America, our client made all the payments he was required to under the trial period plan he was offered by Bank of America. Bank of America never followed through with the permanent modification. Our client’s case was settled and our client received a monthly payment reduction from $2,980.65 to $1,409.55. In addition, our client received a reduction of their principal balance in the amount of $277,549.98.

In Brizuela v. Ocwen Loan Servicing, our clients were making mortgage payments when the loan was transferred to Ocwen. Ocwen began sending our clients loan statements claiming arrears. Our clients had their proof of payments. A lawsuit was filed. Our clients ultimately settled through an Ocwen loan modification. Prior to the litigation, our clients had a mortgage payment of $3,262.00. After the lawsuit, our client’s new mortgage payment amount was $2,069.53 and their principal balance was reduced from $530,000.00 to $335,000.00.

Both of these clients once found themselves being threatened with their homes in foreclosure. If these clients had not hired an experienced stop foreclosure attorney in Los Angeles, they would have been at risk of losing their homes. Because they filed the lawsuits, they were able to save their homes and resume making mortgage payments at a much lower monthly payment amount. Learn more about our foreclosure cases.
