Mortgage Foreclosures Continue to Plague Consumers, Particularly the Disabled

Many of my disabled clients are facing foreclosure every day. If you are having trouble paying your mortgage, you are not alone.

A few weeks ago, the Florida Supreme Court issued an Order which requires the parties in foreclosure cases to participate in mediation (a kind of settlement conference). Our experience with mediation has been very successful, and Florida has always been on the cutting edge when it comes to alternative methods of resolving disputes. However, you should NEVER go to mediation alone! At least look into hiring an attorney to handle any foreclosure case.

Tucker & Ludin does not handle mortgage foreclosure cases, but we know lawyers all over the country who do. I recommend that you ignore advertisements and ask a lawyer that you know for a referral to a local foreclosure defense attorney if you are faced with this situation. Feel free to call or email me if you don't know an attorney to ask.
