Legal Loan Audit Analysis:
This is a very specialized service for those who feel they may be a victim of predatory lending. Your case will be referred to highly trained Attorneys who will review all loan documents and perform a thorough investigation for miscalculations and to determine if the loan terms are accurate, truthful, and met the requirements of the applicable federal statutes.
Remember the #1 goal of the mortgage legal loan audit analysis is to determine whether there were violations of federal law.
If these violations are found, then the borrower may be eligible for complete relief of the predatory loan or a very favorable loan modification. Complete relief of the predatory mortgage is called as a loan rescission. Meaning the lender takes back the “predatory loan” and awards or credits back to the borrower all interest made on payments thus far, loan origination fees, all applicable lenders fees, penalties and attorney’s fees.
However, in most cases the borrower may be ineligible to rescind their loan because they are just too far underwater to obtain a mortgage and their credit rating may have been adversely affected by the loan that has cause them pain and suffering.
The most common option is just to mediate the loan with your lender and fight for an affordable loan modification based on the legal violations on the loan. Everyone wins here. The homeowner has their loan fixed and may have their principle balance may be reduced also. The lender does not lose their shirt because they have mediated the matter without employing their full legal staff on the file and wasting operating expenses.
Loan Modification:
If you have a situation whereby you can afford to make a mortgage payment or had a temporary setback that got you behind on your mortgage then a loan modification and/or mortgage pay rate reduction is a possibility. A loan modification involves demonstrating to the lender that a temporary situation caused the borrower to fall behind on the payments, but that the situation has been resolved completely and the borrower is eligible for a mortgage rate reduction. A loan modification typically requires proof, that the borrower earns enough household income each month to make a mortgage payment. Showing the lender a residential lease for a room, or rooms, in the house will usually suffice.
Loan Modification is also a great solution for a borrower who wants to stay in their property, but can't afford the payment to adjust upward, or can't quite afford the current mortgage payment. In that situation, a mortgage pay rate reduction is an ideal solution because it will lower the monthly mortgage payment to a manageable amount. Loan Modification is also a solution when the payment has not been made for a while, but the borrower can now afford to start making payments again.
The type of Loan Modification that is most beneficial for a borrower behind on mortgage payments is called a “recapitalization agreement.” A Recapitalization agreement takes all the arrears, interest, fees, and accumulated payments and adds it to the principal of the mortgage loan. The result of this negotiation is a slightly larger principal loan amount, but a status of “current” on the mortgage loan payments going forward.

Bankruptcy: (Last recommended option)
In its most basic form, bankruptcy law is a consumer protection law. It is a federal process which allows consumers to have their qualifying debts forgiven. The law recognizes that bad things sometimes happen to good people, and consumers sometimes simply do not have the ability to comply with creditors' repayment demands. We strive to find alternative methods to bankruptcy however sometimes clients do request this option and if that is the case we can refer you to a local Attorney specializing in your area.
Filing for bankruptcy puts into effect an automatic stay, which stops creditors from trying to collect any debt from you. The automatic stay immediately stops creditor phone calls, collection letters, wage garnishments, lawsuits, bank levies, and all other types of harassment, intimidation and scare tactics by creditors.
Once a bankruptcy case is successfully completed, the consumer receives discharge information from the Bankruptcy Court. A Discharge is a legal release from debts. Creditors are left with no legal cause to contact you or pursue debts listed in the bankruptcy documents.
