What is a loan modification?

Well, a loan modification is just that. It's a modification of the terms of the existing loan. The borrower stays in the same loan, but the terms are changed. Typically, we're dealing with an interest rate reduction where the interest rate is lowered to bring the payment down. Another way the loan can be modified is by extending the terms, so a thirty year loan can be made into a forty year loan to bring the payment down a little bit more that way as well. Another common thing that we're starting to see is principal reductions, where the actual amount that the borrower owes is lowered by sometimes tens of thousands of dollars, sometimes a hundred thousand dollars to get the price of the monthly payment down to a point where the borrower can actually afford the payment. My name is Damien Nassiri, I'm a partner in the Law Firm Howard and Nassiri. We're based in Southern California and we help people save their homes.

Loan modification company or a loan modification attorney?

Loan modification companies a lot of times are the same mortgage brokers who put the bars, was in the bad loans in the first place. They're no longer writing mortgages so they flip over and become loan modification companies. And I've had lot of clients come to me and tell me Dave paid thousand of dollars to some loan modification company that didn't do anything to them. So that's the key difference is that, that even if they do something for you, all the modification company is ask for a new loan as long as a lawyer can demand it. If you can't get it, we'll go to court. My name is Damian Nasirri. I'm a partner in a law firm Howard Nassiri, we're based in Southern California and we help people save their homes.

How can a loan modification help me?

In New York a loan modification could work like this: Let’s say that we have a homeowner that’s paying $4,000 a month, after having paid $2,500 a month for two years. Suddenly the, the monthly payment goes up to $4,000 because of the kicking in of the variable rate. At the same time, this borrower has had a reduction in income, so he can’t pay the $4,000. You then talk with the bank, either directly or through an agent, and see if you can’t reach a modification agreement that will prolong the, the payment period and reduce the present monthly payment. This can be done, and the bank wants people to call when they’re in trouble and see if there can be an arrangement like that.

Can I negotiate a loan modification myself?

Anyone can negotiate a loan modification. The problem is, is that these lenders are so bombarded -- and they are still a little bit reluctant to give the loan modification -- that a lot of times the borrower can the runaround. And the borrower will submit a loan modification application, and the lender never calls them back. Or if they do the lender gives them bad news because their house is worth less than what they owe. And so they give - they tell them they can't get the loan modification. What a lawyer can do is step in and enforce that right. A lawyer can file a lawsuit under the new California loan modification law and have the judge order the loan modification. My name is Damien (sp?) Nassiri.

How does a loan modification work?

Loan modification works when you have the borrower and the back agreeing to making a change in the mortgage payments. The facts that are being considered are: Does the borrower have the capacity to pay at the reduced rate? Is the value of the property less so that it's no longer fair to hold the borrower to the higher value because for some reason the borrower may no longer be liable for any deficiency? Various factors need to be brought into play - they negotiate it out; reach a loan modification agreement and that way the homeowner stays in the property and usually pays a reduced monthly rate. I'm Carl Person; I'm a New York lawyer, and my job is to help people stay in their homes.

How will a loan modification help me keep my house?

A loan modification can help you keep your house because it can get you back on the track of making your mortgage payment every month. It really is going to help the borrower who is in default and is several months behind on their loan, get back in the position where they can afford the monthly payment. And usually this is only a couple hundred dollars, maybe a thousand dollars. If we can get that payment down by that amount, the borrower should be able to make the payment. Most of these borrowers have gone into default because they've gotten themselves into these adjustable rate mortgages that have just adjusted a little bit too high for their monthly budget. If we bring it back in a little bit then they should be able to get back on track and stay current. My name's Damion Nassiri. I'm partner in the law firm Howard Nassiri.

Should I negotiate a loan modification myself?

A person that wants a loan modification can do it himself and runs the risk that the bank can ask questions which the borrower might not be able or want to answer at that point. But, if the borrower hires somebody to do this negotiation for him then there's a certain step away which makes it possible that the agreement can be reached more readily. On the other hand if you just defend the lawsuit the attorney that you hire will be the one to, to negotiate the modification for you.

Who best qualifies for a loan modification?

The person who best qualifies for a loan modification agreement in New York is somebody that is asking for a very slight change and who is capable of paying everything that they promise in the new agreement to pay. But that is not what people want who are facing a huge increase in the monthly payment. They want a huge decrease in the monthly payment. Somewhere between a small amount and a huge amount of decrease is where the negotiations lie. The bank may only be willing to reduce it by $750 a month and the borrower may want a $1,500 reduction per month, so if they can't reach an agreement then court will be the one, once the bank goes into court and you file an answer defending the foreclosure action, the bank is more apt to accept the more onerous agreement.

Will I have to go to court to do a loan modification?

A homeowner in California can attempt a loan modification on their own. But, there is nothing that the homeowner in California can do to force the lender to give them a loan modification unless they go to court and sue. That's the unfortunate reality of it is that the lenders a lot of times are not going be giving the loan modifications because they would rather try and foreclose. Someone in California who wants a loan modification, if they can't get it on their own, should go see a lawyer because a lawyer can enforce that right and sue and go to the court and ask the judge to order the loan modification.

What is a loan modification?

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 long does it take to get a loan modification?

A loan modification can take anywhere from one month to six months. Typically it involves negotiations back and forth with the lender, and every lender is different just like every loan is different. So, some lenders are a little bit more willing to work with you, others are not. But usually what we do in our firm is we propose a loan modification to the lender, it involves income analysis, expense analysis, it gives a real good snapshot to the lender of what this borrower can afford. We point out to the lender what the fair market value of the property is and that usually is going to encourage the lenders to reduce the principle and the interest rate within a three to six month time frame.

Can I get a loan modification on my second home?

You can get a loan modification in California on a second home. Ah, the new California loan modification law does not cover, ah, rental homes or second homes. But, as you go forward and as time goes by, a foreclosure is a foreclosure whether it is a second home or first home. So, if the lenders are smart, they’ll give you a loan modification. You can’t necessarily sue for that but you can certainly ask for a loan modification. And if you make them a reasonable proposal, a lot of times they'll listen. My name is Damien Nassiri.

Will a loan modification negotiation stop my mortgage foreclosure?

A loan modification process - that is negotiating a loan modification between the borrower and the bank - you would think would stop the foreclosure proceeding, but it generally does not. That foreclosure proceeding is racing along. And the people at the bank are not calling up the law firm every day advising them on the thousand different foreclosures of what’s going on. The law firm that was told to get a foreclosure is proceeding with a foreclosure, where as the homeowner believes that in talking with the bank and negotiating, there is no foreclosure. That is contrary to what’s happening. They’re going to lose the property. I’m Carl Peron, a New York lawyer and a fighter, to keep people in their homes.

Can I get a loan modification on a second home in NY?

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.

What is a mortgage kicker?

A mortgage kicker is what I see as an extra amount of income that the lender can expect down the line without the borrow realizing it, often. And that is that, if the lender recognizes that the borrower probably is going to be in default, and the bank will then be able to get the property back, the bank will also charge a lot of extra legal fees, a higher rate of interest, and then the bank will resell the property to comeone else, another victim, and go through the same thing again, and that's like a kicker, an equity kicker, for the bank.

Does a bank have to modify my loan in California?

A bank will have to modify a loan now in California because of the California Loan Modification Law. If the borrower meets certain criteria, for instance the loan is orginated between 2003 and 2007 and its a loan on their primary residence, the lenders will have to give a loan modification if the borrower can afford to make a payment on the loan that will reap the lender more money than a foreclosure would. Now a lot of times you're going to have to file a law suit because the lenders aren't listening a lot of times. My name is Damien Nesery. I'm a partner in the law firm of Howard Nesery.

What's it like to help someone stay in their home?

Feels great to help someone modify their loan because it means they are going to be able to keep the loan. It also has a bigger impact on the economy. If we can get all of these non-preforming loans to preform through loan modifications, I really, truly believe that would be as much of a help, if not more of a help, than the current bail out. Because that is the problem right now in California and across the nation, as we have all these people that are in default because they simply can't afford to pay the mortgage after it increases. After the interest rate goes up and they are good people, they are hard working people and they want to make a loan payment. It's just that the predatory loan has made it as such that they can no longer make that increased payment.

Are loan modifications common in California?

Loan modifications are becoming more and more common. Six months ago or a year ago, it was almost unheard of. Lenders were telling us you can't get a loan modification. But now as they are starting to finally wake up and realize how much money they're losing. They're actually becoming more willing to enter into loan modification. A lot of times they won't give you the best deal, however, unless you get an attorney involved or somebody who can actually enforce your legal right to a loan modification, and that's what we're seeing at this time.

Loan modifications are becoming more and more common in this economic arena that we're dealing with today. Six months ago or a year ago it was almost impossible to get a loan modification. The banks were not giving them. But now, as time goes on, and they have more and more of these non-performing loans and foreclosures are on the rise, the lenders are becoming more wiling to deal with us in terms of loan modifications. And now with the new law in California, the California Loan Modification Law, it does mandate that these lenders give loan modifications if they are going to be of a benefit to society. And the way the legislature has determined the benefit is to try and keep these homeowners in the home if at all possible, if they can make a reasonable payment. My name is Damion Nassiri.

When is it smart to initiate your own mortgage foreclosure?

A person should initiate his or her own mortgage foreclosure when the person sees that they can't pay the mortgage for six months from now. Stop paying now and that is the initiation of mortgage foreclosure proceedings. And by the way, as a condition for modification, many banks require you to be in default. Don't pay up your mortgage and then think you're going to get a modification agreement. I'm Carl Pearson, I'm a New York lawyer, and my job is to help people stay in their homes.

How is a sub-prime mortgage different from a regular mortgage?

A sub-prime mortgage is given to individuals who don't qualify with their employment record, their income, their earnings to be qualified for the prime rate. So, in many cases the small business person has no earnings, they somehow live, they don't necessarily pay taxes, and when they try to qualify for a mortgage, the bank laughs because you have no income. So the sub-prime was set up basically for those people that couldn't prove that they could pay a mortgage but many other people who don't have any earnings, don't have any income were also included, and that was a mistake.

What happens to my mortgage if my bank went bankrupt?

If your bank went bankrupt, then chances are, it's a matter of time before your loan will get sold to another lender. So you do need to still keep making your mortgage payment if at all possible. However, if you are in a hard way, and you're not able to make that mortgage payment, you will need to try and get a loan modification from the next lender who buys your loan. And the new California loan modification law applies to loan servicers, so it doesn't matter who originated the loan, whoever is currently holding the loan and servicing the loan will be charged with the responsibility of providing you with the loan modification if you qualify.

What is a mortgage foreclosure defense?

A mortgage foreclosure defense is a way by which a home owner, that owes money to the bank, can keep the home. Number one, a foreclosure action, at least in New York, takes about 14 months. So in a 14 month period, the borrower is able to stall, hold off and forcing the bank to reach a modification agreement hopefully. So these defenses, however, have to be bonafide. For example, a defense that the mortgage broker and the bank were engaged in fraud and were charging a higher interest rate to the borrower than the borrower should have been paying. Often leading up to hundreds of thousands of dollars a year of extra charges. We can defend and do something about that and stop the foreclosure and that's the kind of thing I am urging people do.

Do banks prefer loan modifications or foreclosures?

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 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.

Can I defend my own mortgage foreclosure?

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.

How can a lawyer help me keep my home in New York?

In New York a lawyer can help a borrower who's running into trouble with a home, with a mortgage. And first of all the lawyer should consider whether it's appropriate to stop paying the mortgage right now because of this financial trouble. And then invite a foreclosure. The bank, upon nonpayment, will sue. And then the lawyer should defend, within 20 days after the service of the summons and complaint. In doing so the bank will then say, oh my god there're defending the foreclosure, how unique. Most people don't defend. And the bank will then be more readily agreeable to a modification after the suit is brought when they weren't willing to do the same thing before the suit was brought. I'm Carl Pierceson.

A loan can be restructured if it was made by a predatory lender, and that is even true if your loan has been sold. Many times the originating lender will sell the loan, and it might get sold two or three times. But the laws that are on the books right now - the Federal Truth in Lending Act, and the California Loan Modification Law all say that no matter where the loan is now, if it qualifies, you can get a new loan, get an affordable payment, and something that can help you stay in the home and avoid foreclosure. My name's Damian Nassiri. I'm a partner in the law firm of Howard Nassiri, we're based in southern California, and we help people save their homes. If you've been the victim of a predatory loan, or you're facing foreclosure, give us a call.

How does false advertising contribute to mortgage foreclosures?

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.

Do banks want to lower my monthly mortgage payment?

Banks want to lower the mortgage payments under circumstances that are just. For example, if a person has the property that is declining in value, less income, they have been steady payers they just can't afford the higher rate, and especially if the higher rate was just thrust on them with a variable. The banks recognize the writing on the wall and they are willing to reach an agreement, called a modification agreement, to keep the monthly payment down and make it affordable, yes. I'm Carl Person.

When is the right time to initiate a mortgage defense?

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

Are sub-prime mortgages eligible for a loan modification?

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. I'm Carl Person, a New York lawyer, and a fighter to keep people in their homes.

Why is it bad to discuss my mortgage with the bank over the phone?

Another way of helping the borrower is anytime the borrower had any questions about the mortgage, never use a telephone. Always put the questions in writing and send it to the bank. And the bank is obliged to respond in writing. The bank is not obliged under law to respond when its by telephone.

How is a mortgage foreclosure defense like smart business?

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.

How can I lower my mortgage interest rate in New York?

There are two ways to lower a mortgage interest rate, as I see it. Number one, is to reach a modification agreement with the bank that has a lower interest rate. Number two, if the bank doesn't agree to that, and yet...and proceeds with a foreclosure action, then you defend. And what agreement the bank was not willing to make with you before the action, after you start defending the foreclosure action, you'd be surprised how quick the bank might be willing to accept that same agreement. I'm Carl Person. I'm a New York lawyer and my job is to help people stay in their homes.

Has the economic climate forced the banks to give more loan modifications?

The economic climate is forcing more banks to do loan modifications because they have more and more foreclosures on their books, and it’s not a good thing. It’s really what’s driven the market to be where it is right now, that’s required this bailout by our government, iIs because you have so many non performing loans. And the truth of the matter is that many of these borrowers were able to make their payments in the past, but were unable to keep up with their payments when the interest rates adjusted through the roof. So if we just bring those interest rates back down, it’s going to solve a lot of the problems. If we extend the term of the loan from thirty to fourty years, and maybe drop the principal down a little bit, many – if not all – of these borrowers will be able to make the monthly payments on their loans. My name’s Damion Nassiri. I’m a partner in the law firm Howard Nassiri. We’re based in Southern California and we help people save their homes.

Do mortgage lenders forgive debt?

Mortgage lenders are in the business of trying to maximize the value of their assets and as part of that they will give up interests, they will give up monies that are owed, they will make deals in order to have the properties that they own be productive for them by having people living in their houses and paying a monthly rent. Part of that means that they may have to give up some of the principle of the loan and they have to reduce the interest rate. Yes they are willing to do that and the objective is to try to have in homes that are paying the mortgage, rather than have a lot of toxic mortgages floating around. I'm Carl Person a New York lawyer and a fighter to keep people in their homes.

How can I lower my mortgage payment in New York?

In New York a person can lower his mortgage payment by having a good case to present to the bank that, "I have been sick. I have lost the income." In one case a person's house got a broken back; and as a result it was a structural defect in the house and it caused the house to have half its value. I said, "Negotiate with the bank based upon the new value, and that'll cut your payments in half. You'll only pay half as much and only owe half as much." Facts: The bank wants to listen to facts.

How does a sub-prime loan work?

A sub-prime loan works like this. If your credit score is less than pristine, you're going to be put in a loan with a higher interest rate, and that higher interest rate is because of the risk that the lender is taking and taking someone who has less than pristine credit and putting them and insuring them or giving them this mortgage rather. But what we've seen a lot of here in California is the homeowner that has a good credit score put in these sub-prime mortgages and loans, and that is because lenders make money when they put people in a sub-prime product.

When should I initiate a mortgage foreclosure defense?

The right time to begin a mortgage foreclosure defense is before the bank is even thinking about foreclosure. The best defense is to anticipate when you will need a foreclosure. I say when the borrower needs a foreclosure. This is something the borrower isn't thinking about. The borrower is trying to avoid a foreclosure; but, in fact, many borrowers should seek a foreclosure and plan ahead. I'm Carl Person, a New York lawyer and a fighter to keep people in their homes.

How does the new California law help me stay in my home?

The nice thing about the new California Loan Modification Law is that it allows any borrower to get a loan modification. You don't have to be the victim of a predatory loan. You just have to meet the basic criteria of someone who had a loan that closed between 03 2003 and 2007. If you have been the victim of a predatory loan, however, that will help your case because when we go before the judge and we ask the judge to enforce the California Loan Modification Law, the judge will most likely have more sympathy for somebody who has also been the victim of a predatory loan and should be more willing to order the lender to give you a loan modification.

My mortgage just went up! How do I get it back down?

If your mortgage payment just went up, there are two ways of getting it back down. One, is to talk to the bank and tell the bank your problem and see if they won't be willing to modify the agreement to lower the rate and that with the modification agreement with the consent of the bank. But if the bank won't do it, this is where people then go to a lawyer and tell the lawyer "Look, I can't afford it. I'm gonna have to stop paying the mortgage." And the lawyer might say "Well that's a fine thing. Stop paying. Let them sue you. We'll defend and then we will modify it on better terms."

Can I stop paying my mortgage in New York?

Can a person in New York stop paying his mortgage? And the answer is 'yes'. Its very easy, if you can't afford it you have to stop paying and then you invite a mortgage foreclosure action and then you assert your defenses against it and then the bank will have to reach a modification agreement with you if you're able to live within the terms of the modification. For example, you could cut a $4,000 payment down to maybe $3,200. If you can make the $3,200 payment, the bank may be willing to reach the modification agreement to end the lawsuit.

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

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.

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.

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

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.

How will the economic bailout help me keep my home?

The way that the bailout is currently structured right now is that it helps Wallstreet but doesn't really help main street.Yeah, there's really nothing in the current bailout will neatly help a homeowner whose facing foreclosure. There are guidelines within the bailout that the lender should try to give a loan modification but there's nothing that mandates it. So the bailout as it is planned right now will only have a trickle-down effect to borrowers. It will not help them in a mediate way.

Do banks in New York like to do loan modifications?

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.

Do I qualify to mount a mortgage foreclosure defense?

If a person is sued in a foreclosure action, they're invited by the summons that they receive to put in a defense. A defense will include various reasons why the bank should not win. Various things they've done wrong and the banks we now know have done many things wrong. Previously, like a year ago, the court probably wouldn't look at half of this. But now the courts are looking at it and we are aware that the banks do wrong in many cases. Some of these wrongs translate into defenses and a lawyer can help the person that sued to maintain those defenses. I'm Carl Person, a New York lawyer and a fighter to keep people in their homes.

What's it like to help someone fight against predatory lenders?

It’s a great feeling to help somebody who’s been a victim of a predatory loan. To be able to make that phone call and call the client and let them know that the foreclosure sale has been postponed, that they don’t have to pack up their bags. It’s a great feeling to talk to people who you’ve just helped save their most precious asset. They’ve got kids in school and they don’t want to move, and there is no reason for it. Things can be worked out to get people back on track to be able to make a payment where they can afford to stay in the home and the lender’s not going to lose any more money. So, it really is a good feeling and it’s one that we hope to keep duplicating. My name’s Damion Nassiri. I’m a partner in the law firm Howard Nassiri.

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

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 bad is the mortgage foreclosure problem in New York?

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.

Bankruptcy or a mortgage foreclosure defense?

The issue arises whether people should just file for bankruptcy or deal with a foreclosure action. My feeling is that if you have two options, don't use both of them at one time. I think there's an orderly progression. I think, on one hand, fight the foreclosure and if that doesn't work, then deal with bankruptcy.

Are there laws to protect me from predatory lending?

There are a number of laws that are on the books right now that are designed to prevent predatory lending practices. The problem is, is that, lenders a lot of times don’t follow those laws. They wait until they get caught and then deal with the problems later, because they’re too busy making money off of the predatory loans. And while the gravy train is running, nobody’s going to try to stop it. So, a lot of these lenders were giving loans that were not, that they shouldn’t have been giving. But the problem was that we only found out now, several years later that this, what kind of a problem this really was. My name is Damion Nassiri. I’m a partner in the law firm Howard Nassiri.

What's a common trick a bank uses against struggling home owners?

A trick that many banks use to steal money from a homeowner, especially when he’s in default and he’s no longer paying the mortgage, he’s three months behind, they say, “Look if you want to modify the loan you have to bring your loan up so that you’re no longer in arrears.” So the homeowner then makes payment of ten, twelve thousand dollars and brings it up. Calls the bank, gets another person and says, “Well let’s have a modification agreement. I’m now up to date.” And the bank says, “I’m sorry. We don’t have modification agreements unless you’re in default.” I’m Carl Person. I’m a New York lawyer and my job is to help people stay in their homes.

Do banks in New York want to lower my interest rate?

Banks would like to make properties pay when they have a mortgage outstanding. And in many cases, the banks will have to lower the interest rate in order to make the mortgage payment affordable by the person living in the home. So that the banks may not like it, but they do recognize that the way of keeping toxic mortgages off their books is to bring them back to life by making the mortgages affordable. In that way they do lower interest rates and that is done in a modification agreement. I’m Carl Person, a New York lawyer and a fighter to keep people in their homes.

How do I keep my house if I've been the victim of predatory lending?

If you've been the victim of a predatory loan you do have an opportunity to keep your house. If you've been a victim of predatory loan there are a number of different remedies that are available to you. One of them is recision, which is a cancellation of the contract, putting you back in the same position that you were in before you ever got the loan. Another solution would be loan modification, which is a reworking of the loan and basically bringing down the interest rate and the principle balance that you owe, extending the term of the loan, and that will give you an affordable payment that you can keep in your house. Even if you've been late and you've been in default for months, you can still potentially save your home if you've been the victim. My name is Damien Nassiri, I'm a partner in the law firm Howard and Nassiri, we're based in Southern California and we help people save their homes.

What is the California Foreclosure Consultants Act?

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.

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.

Do California lenders have to modify my loans?

California lenders and any lender nationwide, if it involves a borrower who lives in California, the new civil code section 2923.5 and .6 says that the lender has to get a loan modification, keep the borrower in the home if the loan modification will make the lender more money than the foreclosure. The point of that statute is to stop these foreclosures from happening. The California Legislature has realized that foreclosures are a tremendous problem. It's impacting the economy and so the California Legislature passed this law as an emergency statute to help homeowners stay in the home and to stem the losses that are resulting from these foreclosures. My name is Damian Nassiri. I'm a partner in the law firm Howard/Nassiri. We're based in Southern California, and we help people save their homes.

Will I have to go to court for my predatory lending case?

You may not have to go to court to get your predatory lending case resolved. A few go see a good attorney. A good attorney will be able to negotiate with the lender and hopefully get your loan modified or get your loan restructured, sooner rather than later. However, that same attorney will be ready to go and filed the lawsuit if the case calls for it. A lot of times, lenders will not respond to the attorney's request for a loan modification and in that case there's no choice but to file a lawsuit to get what you deserve under the law.

How do I fight back against predatory lending?

First step you should take if you feel that you have been a victim of the predatory loan in California is that you should contact an attorney, a good attorney who is experienced in truth and lending matters, predatory lending matters will be able to give you free consultation, sit down talk with you and figure out if there is something that we can do. A lot of times there is something that can be done and most borrowers I have talked to did not even know that these laws existed. They had no idea that they could have a legal right to a loan modification under the new California Loan Modification Law. So, first step I would think would be getting a free consultation from an attorney who will be able to advise you of your rights and be able to help you out if you have been the victim.

Can a predatory lending lawsuit prevent foreciosure?

It's possible to stop a foreclosure sale with a predatory lending lawsuit. It will be up to the judge's discretion. The judge will have discretion to stop a foreclosure sale if the judge believes that this case has merit, and that the borrower deserves a loan modification that they can afford. A lot of times, before we file a lawsuit we are able to negotiate with the lender, and the lender chooses to stop the foreclosure sale because they understand that an attorney is involved and that an attorney is trying to negotiate a loan modification that will result in a favorable outcome to the lender because the lender will now have a performing loan with a homeowner who's making a payment, which is better than no payment.

Can I modify my commercial property mortage in NY?

If a person owning commercial property has a mortgage, it's almost the same thing as a tenant in a commercial property going up to the landlord and saying "Look we're having tough times now. I can't pay $80000 a month, I can pay $65000 a month and stay here otherwise I'm just going to have to vacate or go into bankruptcy". So the landlord would say "Okay fine. Let's modify the lease". The same thing is true about a mortgage, that an owner can reach a modification with respect to commercial property when you explain the facts, and the lender is willing you could have a modification. There's nothing prohibiting it, it has to be done by agreement. I'm Carl Person. I'm a New York lawyer and my job is to help people stay in their homes.

What can I do if I've been a victim of predatory lending?

If you feel that you've been the victim of a predatory loan, my advice would be to go seen an attorney. An attorney will be able to give you a free consultation and will be able to analyze your loan documents, perform a forensic document review of your loan documents to ferret out the problems, to goo through the fine details of the loan and hone in on those predatory lending violations that the average consumer is unaware of.

What is the alternative to letting a bank foreclose on my home?

The worst thing that I experience in dealing with the mortgage foreclosure situations is the prospective clients who call me up and tell me their tale of woe: that they have a default judgment, the property is going to be sold, what can they do? I tell them the whole thing of what they should have done. I say, "You should have stopped paying. You should have precipitated a foreclosure action. You should have defended within the 20-day period, and you wouldn't be here now. You would be sitting in your home with a modification. But instead -- because you didn't do anything and the banks were at fault because they talked with you and they made you believe you didn't have to do anything -- you must do something. You have to defend the foreclosure action even though you are talking with a bank. And if you don't do that you are going to make me cry when you call me belatedly three or four months later."

Can I modify my investment property mortage in NY?

If a person owns investment property in New York and it's subject to a mortgage, the same principles of loan modification apply that if the bank and the owner agree to a change in the terms, which usually means a reduction in the monthly rate of payment. Yes, you can have a modification. It always requires the agreement unless you're in bankruptcy court, and then the bankruptcy judge can do certain things, but outside a bankruptcy, you need an agreement of the two parties.

If I was injured in a New York fire, how can a lawyer help me?

If you've been injured in a fire in New York, an attorney can look at the cause of the fire and can also look at how the fire spread and can hire the appropriate experts to determine whether or not the building owner followed the rules that were required under New York state, which are dependent upon when the certificate of occupancy of the building was filed with the building department. And based upon when that certificate of occupancy was filed, there are certain legal obligations and the attorney can look to see if those legal obligations were followed and whether or not if they were not followed if they led to the injuries that you've sustained and they can use the failures of the owners to get you the money you deserve.

What's most difficult about being a foreclosure attorney?

The difficult thing about my practice is that I represent people in distress, and distress is an economic situation. They have less money. They have less faith. They have...they're scared they are going to lose everything they have, and they come to me and they want me to help them. I can't help everyone that is in that dire circumstance. The best thing they can do is come to a lawyer--me or some other lawyer when they first have a foreclosure action against them. Then we can help them inexpensively and do a much better job than when they come belatedly. Or, they should get in there early and advise them to stop paying their mortgage so that they don't waste their money, and that they can precipitate a foreclosure and a modification more readily by doing it quickly, by stopping payment. That is what people need to know, and they don't know this. Instead, they talk with the bank, and the foreclosure is taking place. The foreclosure is going to happen. The faceless person at the bank does not call up the law firm and stop the foreclosure. They think it happens that way. I don't see it happening that way at all. So, the foreclosure is racing along, and then it's in default. And then they come to me saying that, "Oh my God, I'm gonna lose the property." What these people need to know in advance is that they don't have to lose a property that way, and it is not expensive to defend a foreclosure action if you do it timely. I'm Karl Pierson, a New York lawyer and a fighter to keep people in their homes.

A lot of times borrowers have a gut feeling that they have been taken advantage of, but they just can't put it into words and just don't know exactly what happened to them. The - once they go and they talk to an attorney, an attorney can analyze their loan documents and review the finance charges and things of that nature to see if there were any hidden broker fees or whether the terms of the loan were accurately disclosed to the borrower. You know, those loan documents are a stack so think that nobody has time to read them. And they'll - the attorney can do that for you, go through and let you know if you have a case.

Are there laws against predatory lending in California?

There are laws against predatory lending in California. On the federal level, there are laws like the Truth and Lending Act, which forces lender to make certain disclosures of the material terms of the loan. And then on the California State level, there are a number of laws, uh, for example, the new law that just went into affect at the beginning of September of this year, uh, which is called the California Loan Modification Law, which really sets forth a certain set of parameters that lenders have to abide by and give loan modifications to certain people who qualify for those.

Are loans modifications common in New York?

In New York, a loan modification is the desire of both sides when you have a forclosure. If you have a forclosure action both sides would really like to see modification if the modification is acceptable, and that will make the property pay for itself once again where the bank will get a monthly payment and the borrower will remain in possession. That's the desire that's the hope for all of these procedings. I'm Carl Person, a New York lawyer, and a fighter to keep people in their homes.

What is predatory lending?

Predatory lending basically encompasses the unscrupulous lending tactics that lenders and mortgage brokers engaged in giving home loans to homeowners. Basically, they were not disclosing the material terms of the loan. And that, in and of itself, is part of the reason why a lot of these loans are predatory in nature. They withheld the material terms and didn’t disclose certain things in the loans to certain homeowners, and that basically is what encompasses what is a predatory loan.

What's the #1 mistake made trying to avoid foreclosure in NY?

The number one mistake that people make in a mortgage forclosure action is putting their head in the sand and doing nothing about it saying, people say, well your house isn't sold yet so you don't have to do anything. Wrong! When you have an action for forclosure, you must defend it, and if you do, you have a best chance of saving your property, it is very low cost to defend it when you're not in default, it's very high cost and more risky if you are trying to get a lawyer to help you out after you have defaulted.

What rights do I have against foreclosure in New York?

A mortgage foreclosure proceeding involves rights on the part of the borrower and that is to defend the action with whatever defenses that borrower may have. An unusual defense that I see now, and I don't know if it will work, but it should at least be tried, and that is that the bank, contrary to the expectations of the borrower, quite often has sold the mortgage to a pool and has broken it up so that there is nobody in charge, there's no one that owns the mortgage, and therefore when the borrower runs into trouble they can't call a local bank as in "It's A Wonderful Life" and say I'm in trouble will you give me a break. That is contrary to the expectations of the borrower. I'm Carl Person, a New York lawyer and a fighter to keep people in their homes.

When is it too late to mount a foreclosure defense?

When the property is sold as a result of a court order or when the property is sold in a non-judicial foreclosure, it's pretty much too late to initiate something. On the other hand, yesterday a matter came into me in which, even though the property is sold, we're going to try to undo the sale because the bank never served the owner of the property. And, as a result, the bank bought in and the bank still holds the property. And I think that we can undo the foreclosure because of the failure to serve the persons on the mortgage. I think we can undo it even after the sale has taken place. I'm Carl Person. I'm a New York lawyer. And my job is to help people stay in their homes.

What is predatory lending?

Preditory lending involves a series of unfair and deceptive acts and practices commited by lenders and mortgage brokers whereby they put borrowers in worse loans than they would have otherwise qualified for, or they put borrowers in loans that have extremely high interest rates that were not disclosed to the borrowers when they first signed up for the loan. It's a way to take advantage of the borrower and give them a bad loan that they cannot repay.

Does the bank want to take my home in New York?

The bank wants to take your home in order to sell the home and pay off the mortgage and then it's no longer on the books as a non-performing loan. Years ago, maybe a year or two ago, a bank would relish the opportunity of taking over the property, buying it in at a foreclosure sale, and then selling it to someone else and having a new mortgage on it, but now there are too many houses coming into foreclosure and the banks don't want that inventory. They don't want the property to be non-performing, they want to reach an agreement if they can and have the property continue to pay the bank money. That's their objective now.

How can an attorney help in my divorce in Arizona?

In Arizona, the importance of a divorce attorney is as follows: If both parties are able to agree as to their differences in the divorce, perhaps an attorney is not necessary. But if a party goes out and hires an attorney, my advice is that it is imperative that the other party hire an attorney so their rights are protected. Because if they do not hire an attorney, the things that the other attorney will do, in terms of how to settle the case, the actual knowledge that they have of the divorce statutes will inevitably have a negative effect on the other party. And therefore, the role of a divorce attorney is very important in protecting someone's rights, especially when the other party is represented by council. My name is Mike Baker, of the Baker law firm. We serve individuals and families all over Arizona in family law matters, including divorce, child custody, child support and parenting time matters.

What are the top 3 predatory lending violations?

The top three predatory lending violations that we usually see are loans that have negative amortization that wasn't properly disclosed to the home owner. One of the other things that we see a lot of is someone who has a really good credit score, who should qualify for a better loan, but are actually put into a sub-prime loan and that's because lenders make more money when they put more people in sub-prime loans. And then the other thing that we see a lot of is people who were presented with a teaser rate and the interest rate bait-and-switch deal where people thought they were getting on interest rate, but they were actually getting another.

Why is Southern California a hot spot for predatory lending?

California's been one of the hotspots for predatory lending because it is a state with a high population. A lot of people live here and a lot of people that live here worked in the mortgage industry, so there was a lot of this predatory lending activity going on in the California area.

Why is Southern California so hard hit by predatory lending?

California is a victim of this sub-prime crisis for a number of reasons. One, it's Southern California. A lot of people want to move here, buy homes here. [Ah] The homes that people buy here rise in value, or they did up until recently. ah and then what you have is a large number of California residents who were employed in the mortgage industry. California had upwards of 300,000 people employed in this industry. Lenders noticed that, and they wanted to take advantage of that. So they pushed their brokers, even lenders directly, pushed them into pushing people into sub-prime products, and that lead to the economic crisis that we're suffering now.

What is your experience as a foreclosure defense attorney?

My name is Carl Pierson, and I am a Attorney in New York State. I am admitted to the Federal and State Courts in New York State, and I have various admissions elsewhere throughout the country. I'm a graduate of Harvard Law School, I graduated as the Magna Com Laudi at Long Island University, and I was the Student Council President there. My efforts for many years have been in law. I have more than forty years of litigation experience across the board in a variety of different types of matters. And I'm bringing all of that to bear on this new phenomenon, the crisis that we have in America of foreclosures. I'm trying to deal with them in the best way for the benefit of the people that are losing their homes. Because they don't have to lose their homes, there are protections. For example, New York State is not by accident the state which has the longest period of time for a foreclosure to take place. It was done deliberately in order to prevent people from being thrust out of their homes merely because the bankers are tired of having them live in their homes. So we set up obstacles, and that creates a 14 month period, roughly, for a person to be still in his home even when though he can't pay the mortgage. We've done that deliberately. In California, however, there is a non-judicial foreclosure. And they don't even go into court. When you lose your home in California, the bank puts a sign on your front lawn, they have a bus that takes people by your property, and then they sell your property. And that's a non-judicial foreclosure in Arizona, New Hampshire, California and other states. So New York is the longest state, and the best protected, the state that has the best protection for it's residents. I'm Carl Pierson, a New York lawyer, and a fighter, to keep people in their homes.

How should I talk to my bank if I'm behind on payments?

When a borrower is behind on payments or even has any questions at all about the mortgage, the borrower should always address these concerns in writing- in a letter to the bank. If the borrower does not do that, a telephone call is not required to be answered by the bank. They don't have to get back. But with something in writing, they have to under law. So that you want to keep record of what communications you had with the bank by doing it in writing: very important, especially if you're going to have a defense later on. I'm Carl Pearson, a New York lawyer, and a fighter to keep people in their homes.

Is predatory lending a growing problem in California?

Predatory lending is a growing problem in the sense that all of the borrowers who received these predatory loans in the past years, all the chickens are coming home to roost at this point. The borrowers are now, their payments are going through the roof. They can no longer afford them. They are on these adjustable rate mortgages that sounded good and looked good when they first got into them but now as the interest rates are continuing to rise, the borrowers can no longer make these payments. And that's really at the heart of the current economic crisis is a lot of these homeowners in California that cannot make their mortgage payments because they have adjusted upwards and they can no longer afford to make the payment.

How can an attorney help me seek a diagnosis for a brain injury?

If you've sustained a brain injury in New York State, oftentimes that injury may not be diagnosed fully at the time of the accident. You may go to the hospital, they diagnose a concussion, and they send you home. And that's when the suffering begins. A skilled attorney can get you the type of diagnostic tests performed that can perhaps show that there are cognitive deficits, that you have deficits with regard to your executive functions, or whatever your problems are, and they can get you fair compensation for all the damage that you sustained in your accident. I'm Mitchell Proner. If you're looking for an experienced, skilled attorney to represent you or a loved one in New York, contact me today.

Can I keep my house if I'm a predatory lending victim?

Whether you can keep your house if you're a victim of predatory lending depends. We've seen people who have lost their house because they were unaware of what their rights are or were, and by the time they found out it was too late, the lenders had already foreclosed and have taken their home. There's a possibility you can keep your house, but that's going to depend on whether you have adequate representation and whether someone is representing your interests, because the lender certainly aren't, they're representing their interest. And one of the ways in which you can keep your house is if you hire an attorney who's skilled in this area of law, who can exercise your rights and help you keep your home. 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.

How long does it take a NY bank to foreclose on my house?

People wonder how long it takes for a foreclosure action to cause them to lose their home. The answer is that if you don't defend you could lose your home in about four months. If you do defend and you lose, you would lose your home in about 14 months. The purpose of defending however, is not to lose your home but in order to reach an agreement in order to save your home.

Every case is different and pleading guilty or going to trial or entering into a diversion program are all decisions that should be made with the advice and council of your attorney, but only after reviewing all of the evidence in the case.

Predatory lending is a growing problem in California, it really is. California, along with Nevada and Florida, were some of the hardest hit states in our union.

How can I help to prevent pregnancy discrimination in the workplace?

There are a few ways to help prevent pregnancy discrimination in the workplace. One is to communicate clearly with your employer about your pregnancy. After you've informed them of your pregnancy, you want to ask what your rights are, and also insure that you're giving them notice when you need to leave for a doctors appointment or inform them about the leave that you want to take around the time of giving birth. You can also help prevent discrimination in the workplace by informing your supervisor when there is a problem, you want to let them know that immediately so that any further discrimination can be stopped and prevented. My name is Sara Schlehr of the Schlehr law firm. I work to protect California employees from discrimination and harassment in the workplace.

What should I do if I received a foreclosure notice?

A foreclosure notice in New York is a summons and complaint in foreclosure. When a person is served with a summons and complain immediately record the date and the circumstances by which you were served, because you only have 20 days from the date of service to file an answer. Make sure you know when the answer is due and then call an attorney, choose an attorney to defend yourself by filing an answer, possibly with counter claims, to be able to assert the reasons why you're defending the foreclosure suit.

The feeling you get or the feeling I get when helping someone settle their unsecure debt it's hard to put into words because you have a client who's come to you, they are in a hard way, they are in financial dire straits and they can't make that next mortgage payment, buy groceries even and at the end of our program you talk to that same consumer and they have a renewed sense of confidence you know.

What should I look for in a lawyer to help me in a Ortho Novum lawsuit?

You know there a million lawyers out there. And sometimes somebody says "what should I do, throw a dart? Uh, get the yellow pages and you know, get a guy whose name begins with 'A', or whatever?" And the answer is you have to do some research. You know the one thing that has happened to the law is that situations like this are giving people an opportunity to understand what various lawyers do. It doesn't make any difference if I'm a wonderful probate lawyer if you don't have a probate problem. And if you have an ortho novum problem, no matter how good the lawyer is on corporate analysis, that person's not going to be able to help you either. So it's the idea that people now are beginning to understand what lawyers do, to get background information on them, gives them the way to get some justice. My name is Tom Girardi.

Can I prevent a foreclosure from happening to me in NY?

Whether a borrower can actually stop a fore closer forever depends on the facts so that I can't say across the board that a borrower that defends a fore closer is going to win. The victory in many cases is the delay that the borrower needs to be to get his or her own act together and be able to force the bank to accept less money and that is something that at a lower rate of interest the borrower would be able to do and that would bring the property back to performing. The bank wants the property to perform, the borrower wants to remain in the property, the borrower wants to pay a reasonable amount, and this is what a fore closer action and an adequate defense can achieve for all the parties.

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

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.

Most programs are designed to instruct the consumer to stop paying their credit card debt, which is usually the type of debt you’re dealing with, with these programs. When that happens, creditors are allowed to continue to charge you interest, uh, late fees may accrue, and in some of the more extreme situations, uh, you may be the victim of a lawsuit. Uh, so, your credit may be adversely affected. But, it is best that when you are looking around for debt settlement programs you try and find one that has adequate legal representation.

How does the financial crisis effect debt settlement programs?

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.

What do I do if a debt collector has violated the law?

In California, if you believe a debt collector has cross the line or violated the law, what you first must do is document the wrongdoing. So many times I have clients that come in and they tell me in general that a debt collector has crossed the line, but what I specifically need to know, or what an attorney needs to know is what exactly were the bad acts? For example, a common violation is phone calls- harassing phone calls by the debt collectors after the given time periods. Or they've said harassing or abusive things to that consumer. You need to document that, get the time, date, who you spoke with and what was said, and give that over to your attorney and that's the first step in prosecuting one of these claims.

Or you can go the route of an administrative remedy and that is where you can make a formal complaint to the Federal Trade Commission which is the commission that regulates this area and then they can look into it.

How do debt settlement programs in California work?

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.

Will a debt settlement program stop the harassing phone calls?

In California, if you enroll in a debt settlement program where an attorney provides you representation, it may stop the harassing calls from creditors and debt collectors. Under federal law, debt collectors as that term is defined, once you are represented by an attorney the debt collector has to stop the harassing calls. They have to. That's not the same for state law. However, California has a more inclusive statute that protects consumers from harassing calls and only an attorney can make sure that that stops. 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.

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

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.

Debt settlement or bankruptcy in California?

In California, it's going to depend on the individual consumer's situation as to whether they should enroll in a debt settlement program, or whether they should declare bankrupcy. Certainly, if someone doesn't have a lot of disposable income, or any disposable income, to make the monthly payments necessary to be in a debt settlement program, and if they have an insurmountable amount of unsecured debt, then bankrupcy may be the way to go. But keep this in mind - with the change in the new bankrupcy's laws, it's not like it used to be, where you filed bankrupcy and, that's it, my hands are wiped clean of it. With the new bankrupcy laws, you may still have to be in a repayment program, just like you would in a debt settlement program. 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 an attorney you can trust, go ahead and give us a call.

Does my debt go away in a debt settlement?

Your debt may go away in a debt settlement program. I mean at the end of the day that's the goal. Our goal - or anyone going into a debt settlement program, that program's goal is to negotiate away your unsecured debt. However, the consumer has to realize that it's up to the creditor ultimately whether or not they want to reduce or even erase the amount of debt that you owe. Most of the times they will do that because some money is better than no money. I'm Vincent Howard, senior and managing partner of Howard Nassiri.

Is there anything that can help me from being cheated at the pump by hot gas?

You know there's a device that's in existence right now that can totally cure the problem. Doesn't cost very much, per pump it costs about 800 bucks. And what that would do is to make sure that no matter what the temperature was, you would get a full 10 gallons if you were buying 10 gallons. Now then, they refuse to use it, and you won't believe this, except in Canada where it's cold. Then they can use that device, because they can only give your baby 9.7 gallons and charge you for 10, because there it's cold and the gas molecules are closer together.

How can a lawyer help me in a car accident case?

I look at what I do as helping that particular client in a playing field that just isn't level. Insurance companies hire some of the most well paid attorneys. The insurance companies hire entire teams of attorneys to represent the best interest of the insurance company not the individual person that was injured in an accident or the individual person who was totally disabled as a result of nothing that they did on their own but somebody else's negligence. We level the playing field for a client. My name is Guy Montovano of Kantrovitz and Associates.

We all see hits on lawyers who handle these class-actions. This may come as a big surprise to you, but the people making the hits are those who defrauded, by and large, the community.

For example, in this hot gas case, lawyers are working basically around the clock for you to try to get these companies who are overcharging you to make them stop doing it.

Why are insurance companies so difficult after an accident?

Insurance companies are very difficult to deal with after an automobile accident, because they don't want to help the person who's hurt at all.

What is a big mistake made with motorcycle accident claims?

The number one mistake that I see in victims of motorcycle accidents that try to handle it themselves is talking to the adjustor from the insurance company, believing the adjustor is their friend or is going to help them, giving them statements without the advice of counsel and many times making big mistakes that prevent them from getting a full recovery. The insurance adjustor is not your friend. He's trained to act like your friend. His objective is to pay you as little money as possible. I'm attorney Tom Kiley. I've been representing the seriously injured and their families in Massachusetts for over three decades.

Is the car insurance adjuster on my side? Will my claim be treated fairly?

When you've been involved in a car accident in Southern California and you call the insurance company for the driver that caused your accident, and caused you injury, the other person on the end of that line, the insurance adjuster, is not your friend. Trust me, they aren't looking out for your best interest. What they are concerned with is the best interest of the insurance company, and that is to save money. So it's very important that when and before you deal with an insurance company you communicate with an attorney that can help you represent yourself and your injuries to the insurance company. I'm Jeff Roberts of the Roberts Law Firm, a full service personal injury law firm in Southern California. If you've been involved in an accident, call us for a free consultation.

Why does medical malpractice occur in NY hospitals?

Medical malpractice occurs for various reasons. One of the most common reasons is that people are treated in hospitals by physicians who are early in their training, and are actually learning while they are treating the patients and learning on the patients.

So, when you are treated by a novice, they frequently miss the problem that you are there for. This gives rise to many malpractice suits.

What is an attorney's role in a real estate sale?

If you're selling real property, you should have a lawyer advise you because the buyer is entitled to a complete disclosure from you, with respect to the property. And if you don't provide those proper disclosures, the buyer can come back and sue you for misrepresentation, fraud, and failure to disclose. You need a lawyer to properly word and structure the disclosures, so that you're completely protected. If possible, it's good to have an as-if clause added in the contract.

Do I need a lawyer to file a dog bite claim?

In dog attack claims, you don't necessarily need an attorney to handle the claim. If it's serious an attorney will be a big help to you. If you are a fair negotiator, I mean if you know how to negotiate and you can handle dealing with an insurance company, then you could handle the claim yourself, as long as you know the value of the claim yourself (and that's the tricky part). Because a very experienced personal injury attorney, or a dog bite attorney, is gonna know what he settled his last 100 claims for and be able to identify the value of your claim versus those other claims.

What's a common mistake people make after a car accident?

A common mistake that I see people making after they’ve been involved in an auto accident in California is that they don’t get a medical exam. They don’t go to their family doctor and receive treatment. The idea that an accident - because it was a fender bender, or because it didn’t result in a broken bone - that it didn’t result in an injury is a common mistake. And I always tell people, go to a doctor, have an examination. It will help you. I’m Jeff Roberts of the Roberts Law firm, a full service personal injury law firm in Southern California.

Obviously, I would expect your attorney, if they're experienced at all, was planning for this possibility in the defense of your case, and they should be defending you with the registry to help you keep your license or at least get a Cinderella license, a license that you can use in order to go to work.

How much money in a college sexual harassment case?

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.

The number one mistake people make in buying commercial property is they don't carefully analyze the vehicle in which they utilize to purchase the property.

Can litigation occur in probate or trust administration?

There are a lot of problems that arise that generate litigation during probate or trust administration. A lot of those problems are because of the drafting errors that were made in the initial estate plan. That's why it's so important that the estate plan be prepared by a competent attorney. Other problems arise because of the fact that there are disagreements amongst the children as to what the parent's intentions are. And even if the intentions are clearly stated, children feel slighted, or heirs from a prior marriage contest and dispute with the second wife. And there is lots of different problems involved with blended families. I'm Jeff Matsen, and I'm the founding and managing partner of Wealth Strategies Counsel.

How do I find a lawyer if I'm the victim of a Metro Link accident?

Maybe one would ask, if I got hurt in a Metrolink crash, who should I call upon? What lawyer can help me? You know, that’s a real good question. The medical community has done a much better job at guiding people to the right person because of the medical problem you may have. If your little child is sick, you know you need to go to a pediatrician. If you break your leg, you need to go to an orthopedic surgeon. On the other hand for lawyers all it says is: lawyer. You know - lawyer one flight up. And the only way really I think you can get a handle on this is to do some investigation yourself. Services like Legal Faces do an awful lot to give you a handle on the lawyers that are out there, the type of work they do, and how they are successful. My name is Tom Girardi.
