Property Division Attorney Handling Underwater Mortgage Issues and Other Debt Problems
In a divorce, all assets and debts are subject to equitable distribution. In situations where a home is “underwater” or in foreclosure proceedings, the property distribution process becomes a matter of debt distribution rather than asset distribution. In these situations, I will try to obtain a result that mitigates further damage to your financial situation. I have more than 40 years of legal experience, and I am often able to seek creative solutions to difficult situations.
In other cases, you may simply want time to work out a solution with your lenders. If you are facing foreclosure, a lawyer can be instrumental in raising defenses that can lawfully forestall or stop a foreclosure action altogether.
