Bankruptcy: A Legal Lifeline to Prevent Foreclosure

Although choosing bankruptcy can be a difficult decision and even considering the option can be overwhelming, filing for bankruptcy can end foreclosure.

Here's how bankruptcy stops foreclosure:

  • The moment you file for bankruptcy, an "automatic stay" is issued.
  • This order puts a stop to all collection activities (including foreclosure).
  • Creditors are not allowed to contact you.
  • Filing for bankruptcy gives you time to reorganize or discharge your debts.

We know that losing your home can be stressful. Whether you are struggling to make your mortgage payments or have creditors threatening to foreclose, the sooner you take action, the better your chances are of keeping your home. Opting for bankruptcy can be difficult, but our goal to make this experience as stress-free as possible for you.

Understanding Foreclosure: A Step-by-Step Guide

Have you missed your mortgage payments for several months? If so, it is likely that your lender will foreclosure on your property and take it back. Foreclosure is different in every state -- below is an overview.

Here’s how foreclosure works:

  • Payment default happens when you miss one mortgage payment.
  • You will receive a demand letter after two missed payments.
  • You will receive a Notice of Default after 90 days of missed payments.
  • If you are unable to negotiate or settle payments with the lender after an additional 90 days, the property will go on sale at a public auction for 3 weeks.
  • During the trustee’s sale, the property is awarded to the highest bidder and they may possess the property immediately.
  • If it’s not sold, the lender will own it and may try to sell it with the help of a real-estate-owned asset manager.
  • After the property is sold, you will be evicted from the property.

    "With her professional help and expertise, I was able to claim my financial freedom and start over! Thank you so much Ms. Butler!"
    I kid you not, Stacey Butler changed my life! I went to Ms. Butler in July of 2012 with a case that I thought she wouldn't be able to help with. She got the debt collectors off of my back. They stopped calling and harassing me and I was even able to have my driver's license reinstated! Over a three month period, I was able to make conveniently scheduled payments to pay for her services. Ms. Butler was very professional, very personable and she helped me accomplish something that I had been attempting to accomplish for SEVERAL years (LICENSE!!!) on my own unsuccessfully due to my horrible financial situation. With her professional help and expertise, I was able to claim my financial freedom and start over! Thank you so much Ms. Butler!

    "Its a relief to see the light at the end of the tunnel and start my life over with better savings and credit score."
    i had previously filed a chapter 13 with another attorney needless to say it got dismissed without me knowing. I found out it was dismissed from a mailer i received in the mail from THE BANKRUPTCY LAW GROUP LLC . The person that answered the phone was LIONEL he is amazing at what he does. He told me everything i needed to do even called when one of my payment didn't go through to update payment. The entire team is amazing TINA MARIE PERRY is amazing she reminded me to make my court payments and to take my last class. I totally would have had to start all over again if it wasn't for her friendly email and phone call reminders. I filed for bankruptcy in April yesterday 7/3/17. I received an alert that it was dismissed. Although Im not done yet. Its a relief to see the light at the end of the tunnel and start my life over with better savings and credit score. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR EVERYTHING
