I just lost my job! How can I keep my home?

If a person who has just lost his job wants to save his home, there is two things to do. Number one, tell the bank that you can't pay the mortgage the way it is and ask for a modification agreement. The bank sometimes will agree and other times not. If the bank refuses to agree to a modification, then stop paying the mortgage. Precipitate a lawsuit. Defend the lawsuit, and then you will have a better chance of reaching the modification that you want. I'm Carl Person. I'm New York lawyer, and my job is to help people stay in their homes.

What is my first line of defense against mortgage foreclosure?

When a person feels like there is going to be a crisis coming up because of sickness or loss of job, loss of income, and therefore they won't be able to continue paying their mortgage, they should think ahead of time, maybe even six months in advance, see an attorney and talk with the attorney and see whether it is not appropriate now to stop paying the mortgage and save that money- fourteen months worth of mortgage payments. Use that to defend the action and then to obtain from the bank a modification agreement once they are in foreclosure. I am Carl Person.

How much money in a workplace sexual harassment case?

In your typical discrimination case, which includes sexual harassment, racist discrimination, gender discrimination, the primary one is economic loss. That's your loss to pay either while working at the job, meaning they failed to pay you as much as you were entitled to or after you were terminated and that's the money that you lost while you weren't working. The second is emotional injuries, pain and suffering, and that will greatly depend on, of course, how much you suffered and whether you sought psychologial or psychiatric treatment for that suffering. And there are also other types of damages that you can seek as well, such as, in certain limited cases, punitive damages and also attorney's fees. My name is Walker Harmon.
