As part of our Foreclosure Fraud Prevention Team project we attempt to place foreclosure cases with volunteer attorneys. Since October Attorney Keith Sanders and Attorney Timothy Schuler have each volunteered to represent clients in foreclosure cases.
We are extremely grateful, as are our clients, when attorneys volunteer to represent these homeowners who would otherwise not be able to afford representation.
One of the cases we were able to place involved the home of a single mother, her daughter and her grandchild. Her grandchild is only four months old and spent the first few months of his life in the hospital with serious medical conditions. The mother had to miss work to help take care of the grandchild and fell behind on her mortgage payments. She attempted to contact the lender herself in hopes of modifying her mortgage but was unable to accomplish this on her own. She was then served with a foreclosure complaint after a few months of not being able to pay her mortgage. Now thanks to our very generous volunteer attorney she has representation in this foreclosure case and will hopefully be able to save her families’ home.
Thank you to all of our volunteer attorneys, we could not help as many people as we do without you.
