The possibility of losing a home or vehicle is often the reason that individuals struggling with debt finally consider bankruptcy as an option. Many people avoid it for as long as possible, but bankruptcy often provides the relief needed to get out of debt or catch up on payments, potentially keeping the home.
Kent Foreclosure And Repossession Attorney
At the Law Office of Kevin J. Magorien, PS, we daily guide clients through the process of leveraging a bankruptcy filing to save their home. We fully educate our clients on all options available to their specific situation and provide direction to the ones that will best meet their individual long-term goals.
Foreclosures Defense
Following bankruptcy, an automatic stop is placed on all foreclosure efforts. While the foreclosure may proceed later, the stop often gives homeowners a brief space to momentarily recover and begin payments again, saving the home. In some cases, enough is owed on the balance of the mortgage that it makes more sense to allow the home to go into foreclosure. In other situations, the homeowner may be financing the home through two loans. It may be safer to stay current on one loan, cramming down the debt to a more manageable situation.
We will carefully assess the situation and help you intentionally choose the steps to accomplish your specific goals for your long-term financial situation.
