Stop Foreclosure in Chicago
If you are struggling financially and have fallen behind on your home mortgage payments, you may have concerns that foreclosure proceedings are imminent, or you may already have received a notice of foreclosure. You may also have seen advertisements from individuals or companies promising to help you secure a home loan modification or workout, so that you can keep your house. Don't be fooled by these advertisements. These companies are often in business only to make money at your expense. Your interests are best served by an experienced lawyer, a professional who will always put your needs and interests first.
At the Debra Levine Law Offices, we have provided sound bankruptcy counsel to individuals throughout the greater Chicago area since 1996. Our lawyers view bankruptcy as more than just a fresh start: We believe it is the first step in a new financial direction, one that will help you build a secure financial future. In more than 14 years in practice, we have successfully helped thousands of people in Illinois use bankruptcy as a stepping stone to a brighter future.
Use Bankruptcy to Stop Foreclosure and Avoid Mortgage Modification Scams
We work closely with individuals facing foreclosure or seeking to modify the terms of a home mortgage. When you hire us to help you fight efforts to take your home, we will first determine whether a home loan workout is an option. We will work directly with your lender, seeking to reduce your interest rate, extend the term of your loan and take any other steps we can to make your payments affordable.
Filing for Bankruptcy Will Not Prevent You From Modifying Your Mortgage
If a mortgage modification cannot be negotiated, we will help you understand how a bankruptcy filing can suspend the foreclosure process, often buying you the time you need to get caught up financially. Often, banks make empty promises regarding mortgage modification and many people start the process with little success. You may be able to proceed with the mortgage modification process, under protection of the bankruptcy courts, without worrying about losing your home. You can rid yourself of other unsecured debts, so that you now have the additional income to make your house payments. In Chapter 13 reorganization, we can help you seek new payment arrangements with the protection of the bankruptcy laws.
