To recover money, do I need to sue after an auto accident?

Bisnar Chase LLP

Most people that have been injured in an automobile accident do not technically sue. If they are injured, they make a claim and there is a difference between a claim and a lawsuit. A claim is you present a claim to the insurance company and you work out a hopefully fair settlement. If you don't work out a fair settlement, if you don't get the money that you believe you are entitled to, that's when you go to a lawsuit. And lawsuits on personal injury accidents on auto accidents in California have been declining every year for the last ten to fifteen years.

How much money in a workplace sexual harassment case?

The Harman Firm, P.C.

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. I'm the managing attorney of the Harmon Firm. If you believe you've been the victim of illegal employment discrimination we are eager to speak with you. Please give us a call.

How much money can I receive in a wrongful death lawsuit from a Metro Link accident?

Girardi & Keese Lawyers

One question that people would ask is how much money can I get if I'm in a MetroLink crash. And the answer to that is I don't know. The truthful answer is the law is very strict on what you're entitled to receive; what things can be claimed and what things can't be claimed. If it's a death case, for example, you're entitled to the loss of earnings that that person no longer can provide because he's no longer part of the family. Or she's no longer part of the family. You're also entitled to a sum to make up for the loss of love, care, comfort and society of the person that got killed. So in a death case that would be the measure of damages.

How much money in a college sexual harassment case?

The Harman Firm, P.C.

The compensation in a college sexual harrassent case is more difficult to assess. It depends often on the emotional injuries that the particular student, for instance, has suffered. So it would depend on how bad, for instance, the sexual harrasment was. Was there forced sexual activity? That would be a case where there might be higher emotional injuries and therefore higher damages. So it's really difficult to assess that. And I would recommend to anyone that believes they're being sexual harrased on a college campus seek the advice of an attorney so that they can help you assess whether you have a case, in the first instance and also what kind of damages could could evolve out of that case.

How does the financial crisis effect debt settlement programs?

Howard | Nassiri, LLP

The current climate may make it easier to get a debt settlement, because the economic situation we’re dealing with now is financial institutions that are failing. And they’re failing because they need liquidity, they need money. Debt settlement is a way for them to get this money. Some money is better than no money. So, where as maybe in the past they may have been slow to settle certain consumer accounts, now they’re going to speed it up and do that - because they need that money given their financial situation, if they’re in a bad way. I’m Vincent Howard, senior and managing partner of Howard Nassiri. We work hard every day, representing the consumer, from our headquarters in Orange County, California.

Howard | Nassiri, LLP

In California, debt settling programs work one of two ways. The first way, the debt settling company gets all their money up front, negotiates something with the lender and passes it off to the consumer and says, "here you go, you're on your own." The better debt settlement companies do it this way - they have the consumer pay money into a trust account over time, and you can only do this with a law firm. Once that money accumulates and so much money is in that account, the attorney makes an offer of settlement to the creditors and when that attorney makes that offer of settlement that money is there. That program is much more successful. I'm Vincent Howard, senior and managing partner of Howard Nassiri. We work hard every day representing the consumer from our headquarters in Orange County, California. If you need attorney you can trust, go ahead and give us a call.

How long will it take debt settlement to get me out of debt?

Howard | Nassiri, LLP

In California, once you engage in a debt settlement program, how fast you get out of debt is really going to depend on you. In some of the better programs where you're putting money into a trust account with an attorney giving them the ability to negotiate your debt away, it's going to depend on how much disposable income you're going to have and how much money you're going to have to put in that trust account. If you put more money in there, of course you're going to get out of debt a lot faster than someone who's putting less money in there. So, at the end of the day it's going to depend on the actual consumer on how fast they get out of debt. I'm Vincent Howard, senior and managing partner of Howard and Nesery. We work hard every day representing the consumer from our headquarters in Orange County California. If you need an attorney you can trust, go ahead and give us a call.

Do banks in New York like to do loan modifications?

Carl E. Person

You might wonder whether a bank is interested in doing a loan modification. The answer is - they’re ecstatic about it! They want to have the properties that are not paying them money to start paying them money once again. And when people can’t pay them money the only way they can do it is to pay less per month, then the bank is willing to reach an agreement called a modification agreement so that that will take place, yes. I’m Carl Person, a New York lawyer and a fighter to keep people in their homes.

Why are insurance companies such a pain to deal with?

Proner & Proner

Insurance companies are big businesses and they have share holders and owners that they have to cater to. And they are trying to make as much money as possible and they do that in part by paying out as little as possible on claims. So if an adjuster pays out less than a case is worth, that adjuster did a good job. If they hire an attorney, that is very skilled, and the accident victim has an attorney that's not so skilled, and the defense attorney for the insurance carrier wins, that's a win for the insurance company. Because the insurance company has more money in their coffers. So insurance companies try to save money by paying out as little as possible in claims. I'm Michal Proner.

Can I defend my own mortgage foreclosure?

Carl E. Person

The question often arises whether somebody should defend a mortgage foreclosure action himself or herself, particularly when they don't have money. I say to these people this: stop paying your mortgage when you know you're going to start having trouble in the future. You're going to have enough money then to hire a lawyer. Don't do it yourself! Because it's so tricky, even for a lawyer, that you don't want to be - run the risk of losing your property. Hire a lawyer and do it quickly.

Should I stop paying my mortgage if I'm near foreclosure?

Carl E. Person

If you're running out of money and the question is should you stop paying your mortgage, the answer is see an attorney, describe what's happening, and the attorney should consider whether you should stop paying it and precipitate a foreclosure so that you can save the money that you do have for the next fourteen months and be able to pay an attorney to defend yourself, so that yes a person could do this and should at least see an attorney to decide whether or not it's appropriate.

How does false advertising contribute to mortgage foreclosures?

Carl E. Person

False advertising contributes to mortgage foreclosures in various ways. One of them is that people who should not be owning a home are encouraged to borrow the money to buy the home. And you wonder is there a group of people who shouldn't own a home? Well, if a person that buys a home doesn't have the money to properly care for the home and can't pay the taxes for the home and can't pay the mortgage payment, that person really shouldn't be buying it and it will, when that property is vacant, its going to hurt the rest of the community as well.

If they want to save more money faster and put more money into their trust account, allowing attornies the ability to negotiate their debts faster then they're going to be in them for a shorter amount of time.

Do banks prefer loan modifications or foreclosures?

Howard | Nassiri, LLP

As time goes on, banks are becoming more and more willing to do loan modifications. I would say six months or a year ago, the answer was 'no' whenever a borrower came to a, a bank for loan modification. But as the time is going by and the banks are losing more and more money on the non-performing loans and the foreclosure sales that are not uh, occurring, the banks are st-, starting to change their tune. And especially with the bailout, and the new laws that are coming around with, in California, uh, they are becoming, they're starting to wake up and smell the coffee. And realize that they need to make some money of these loans and the way to do that is to, is to get a loan modification and get the borrower on a payment that they can afford. If they need to extend the term, or if they need to lower the interest rate, something is better than nothing at this point. And so that's the way we're really starting to see banks are becoming more open to the idea of loan modificaiton. My name is Damion Nasire. I'm a partner in the law firm Howard & Nasire.

What is the California Foreclosure Consultants Act?

Howard | Nassiri, LLP

The California Foreclosure Consultants Act is a law in California that prevents people from approaching you while you're in foreclosure and asking you for money up front to perform a service for you to help you get out of foreclosure. It's illegal for somebody, such as a mortgage broker, someone other than an attorney to come to you and say, "Give me money now for something I'm going to do for you later". You actually have to perform the service and then get paid for it afterwards because the Legislature has realized that people, when they're in foreclosure, are in a vulnerable situation and they'll do anything to try and save their home. So, it's really a law to protect consumers. Attorneys are exempt from that model because we are licensed by the state and we're held to a higher standard. So, we are able to actually go to somebody and sign them up under a retainer agreement to perform a loan modification. It's okay for us to do that. But, the Legislature has prevented others from doing that. My name is Damian Nassiri. I'm a partner in the Law Firm Howard and Nassiri.

What's the first step in a debt settlement program?

Howard | Nassiri, LLP

In California, your first move in deciding you want to enter into a debt settlement program is to contact someone you trust and feel comfortable with. Once you’ve done that, usually what they’re going to instruct you to do is to stop making payments on your credit cards. And remember, this may adversely affect your credit scores. But you have to look at it this way. If you’re already reaching out to someone needing that help, your credit score’s probably being impacted already by not making payments at all or making slow payments altogether. After that you’re going to do a financial assessment to see if debt settlement is right for you. And then you’re going to start making payments into a trust account that is designed to hold your money and use that money to settle your unsecured debt. I’m Vincent Howard, senior and managing partner of Howard Nassiri. We work hard every day, representing the consumer, from our headquarters in Orange County, California.

When is the right time to initiate a mortgage defense?

Carl E. Person

The bank determines when the foreclosure preceding begins, but the borrower has an opportunity of deciding for himself or herself when he or she wants the bank to begin this. And the way its done is that a borrower realizes that six months from now, I don't have any money. I'm not going to be able to pay the foreclosure or pay the mortgage in six months. So why spend all of your money between now and six months and give the bank everything you have. Stop paying! Right now! Stop paying. Precipitate a foreclosure right now and you will have fourteen months of not having to pay the mortgage and you can then force the bank, if you have appropriate circumstances, you can force the bank into reaching a modification agreement which right now, today, they won't give you! That's why you're here talking with me, because the bank won't give you a modification. Let's force them to do it by bringing them into court, force them to sue you, you defend and then you can have the relief you are seeking. I'm Carl Person.

Carl Person: A person with a second home mortgage can get a modification. The bank is concerned because the person that owns the home doesn't live in it. But if the person that owns the home can demonstrate that the property is rentable and has been rented, and can support a lower rate than is now being charged; the bank will consider whether they should reach a modification agreement, and maybe they'll add more money at the far end but you can modify anything by agreement.

When is it smart to stop paying my mortgage in New York?

Carl E. Person

It's a smart move to stop paying your mortgage in New York when you don't have the money to pay. You have no other choice, so you should stop payment earlier rather than later. Have the bank then bring a forclosure action, you now have fourteen months of additional time for nonpayment of the mortgage, and because of that the bank will want to reach a modification agreement and you should try desperately to reach one that you could live with, and that's the perfect resolution of the case.

What is a loan modification?

Carl E. Person

In New York, as in other states, a loan modification is where the bank and the borrower reach an agreement, which generally reduces the monthly payment that the borrower has to make. In some cases, they throw that unpaid amount at the far end, so that the length of the mortgage is more it's greater length in order to pay back the money that isn't being paid today, but all that is subject to negotiation.

How bad is the mortgage foreclosure problem in New York?

Carl E. Person

Today we have about 370 foreclosures ever week in the five boroughs, and near the end of the year we're going to have an increase in them. The banks right now are holding bank because of the uncertainty; we don't really know what the federal government plans to do. As I see it, it looks like a giveaway to the banks and not much for the homeowner. So that's something that the homeowners should recognize, that the statutes, so far, don't seem to be helping them. If the government gets its' money back, that means that the homeowner pays in full, and that isn't what they hoped that they're going to get.

How can I afford an attorney to help with foreclosure defense?

Carl E. Person

When people want to keep their house, they think that paying the mortgage every month as long as they can and holding on to the house that way. That's a mistake. They give away their last cent to the bank and they have nothing left with which to defend themselves. So, thinking ahead when you are going to run into a foreclosure situation, precipitate it yourself by stopping payment. Use that money to higher a lawyer. You don't pay during the 14 months of the foreclosure proceeding and you make the bank come to the bargaining table and hopefully get an agreement.

How is a mortgage foreclosure defense like smart business?

Carl E. Person

When a borrower has a mortgage and knows there's going to be trouble ahead, the borrower should look ahead like anyone in business would that sees bad times coming and they should start adjusting their financial policy, which means in the case of a mortgage, consider whether you should stop paying earlier now, rather than paying until you have no money left. So smart business tactics would be stop paying, force a mortgage foreclosure proceeding and then defend. And then usually reach a negotiation and settlement that will allow the property to be brought back to a performing status.

What is my 2nd line of defense against mortgage foreclosure?

Carl E. Person

The second line of defense in a mortgage foreclosure situation is to retain an attorney to file an answer, and do so within 20 days after the summons and complaint have been served. This is critical. It is easy to defend a foreclosure action if you do the defense in a timely basis. It is exceedingly costly and difficult if you have allowed the defense to go by the boards. Don't do it. Defend the action, hire the attorney, pay the money, and you will be sitting a lot better than if you let it go until later and then try to resurrect your situation. I am Carl Person, a New York lawyer and a fighter to keep people in their homes.

Are sub-prime mortgages eligible for a loan modification?

Carl E. Person

Subprime mortgages are the ones that basically are being forclosed, and they, yes they are as eligible if not more eligible because in many cases the borrower really did qualify for a lower rate and they gave them a higher rate in order to pay a mortgage broker who looked around for the bank that would give the mortgage broker the most money and the bank then tacked it on and charged a higher rate than the bank should have.

What is my first line of defense against mortgage foreclosure?

Carl E. Person

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. I'm a New York lawyer, and my job is to help people stay in their homes.

Why do insurance companies have a bad reputation when it comes to settling fairly?

The Roberts Law Firm

The reputation that insurance companies have for being hardball negotiators and being basically rotten when you are injured in a car accident is well deserved because that's when their true colors come shining through. What they are trying to do is save the insurance company money. They are not looking to help you, they are not looking to help you get better. They are not looking to pay all of your medical bills. They are going to try to do everything they can to lower your recovery. I'm Jeff Roberts of the Roberts Law Firm, a full service personal injury law firm in southern California.
