Introducing Helene Gerstle, Forelosure Defense Attorney, as Guest Blogger


Thank You for the Invitation         

I am grateful to Attorney Sherwin for allowing me to join his foreclosure defense blog and write about some of my experiences as a foreclosure defense attorney.

This part of my career began at the time of the financial crisis.  There were few attorneys who had practiced in the area of foreclosure defense.  And fewer judges who had heard about the issues.

This is an important area of practice and has huge implications for the homeowner who is defending the right to stay in their home.  Unfortunately, the government has not taken a strong stand against the banks.  When they do attempt to pursue the banks for bad foreclosure practices, the efforts are less than enthusiastic. 

This is why it is important that if you are in a foreclosure situation that you take the time to consult with an attorney and one who has experience in foreclosure defense.  AND THE EARLIER THE BETTER.

It is much easier for a foreclosure defense attorney to represent your interests if you contact them when you first have problems with the payment of your loan than if you wait until the week before the foreclosure or even after the foreclosure.
