BANKRUPTCY AND FORECLOSURE DEFENSE ANDREW J. LAFAVE, P.A.
Welcome to The Law Offices of Andrew J. LaFave P.A., the first name in bankruptcy and foreclosure defense attorneys.
Bankruptcy and Foreclosure are serious disruptions in one’s life. If you are facing foreclosure, filing for bankruptcy might help. Filing for Chapter 7 bankruptcy can often delay a foreclosure for a period of time. As an alternative, some people may be able to save their home and other assets by filing for a Chapter 13 bankruptcy.
Foreclosure typically begins after a homeowner falls behind on mortgage payments for several months. Under foreclosure, the lender begins the legal process of selling the home at auction in order to secure payment for the loan. This process takes time, begining with notification of the homeowner. Because foreclosure filing takes time, this will give you time to try some alternate measures, such as loan forbearance, loan modification, short sale, or a deed in lieu of foreclosure.
Declaring bankruptcy is a difficult decision and it is advised to contact an attorney with the experience and competence to guide you through the process. Andrew LaFave Law will defend your rights and provide legal expertise to minimize the damage to your finances and life.
