Lawyers You Can Rely On
Under recent changes in federal mortgage guidelines lenders can continue to offer loan modifications through bankruptcy.
However, according to the Washington Post, many lenders are pursuing a "two-track" process where banks work on modification while starting foreclosure at the same time.
On October 30, 2010, the Washington Post reported on the case of Ms. Valerie Stovall of Hagerstown. She was in the process of modifying her mortgage loan when she returned home from the grocery store one day to find an eviction notice on her door!

Credit card lenders have become very aggressive in collecting debts and are taking borrowers to court even if they are one or two months behind in payments. Don't take a chance on having your wages garnished by a lender who has a judgment against you. Bankruptcy can protect you from having your bank accounts attached. We are finding that in many cases a borrower's credit score actually goes up as a result of filing. We can give you an estimate of your new credit score before we file.
You should consider Chapter 7 if:
- You have credit card debt or other debt (such as medical bills or a repossessed auto) that you are unable to pay, and
- You do not own a home, or
- You own a home with no equity or negative equity.
You should consider Chapter 13 if:
- You own a home and are behind in mortgage payments, or
- You have received notice that your lender may foreclose on your home and you want to save your home, or
- Your credit card balances keep increasing due to increased interest rates and penalties.
