We represent clients who are in a foreclosure lawsuit and those who know one is coming. Any person who has been served with a foreclosure complaint should hire an attorney immediately. Florida law provides only twenty days to respond to a foreclosure complaint. If a foreclosure suit has been filed or you know one is imminent, consult with a lawyer who has experience defending such cases to discuss the legal options available to you. There is no reason to become one of the statistics who do nothing and allow the foreclosure to go through without seeking legal representation. The banks are counting on you to do nothing.
Foreclosure is a lawsuit brought by the lender to take back your home. You have the right to participate in the legal case to make sure the banks lawyers take specific actions, in the correct order, with the correct timing, in order to have the right to foreclose. Without an attorney, most homeowners have no way to determine if the bank's lawyers are acting properly and it is not the function of the courts to protect your legal rights.
The Appel Law Group handles foreclosure defense cases throughout Florida. We can help you by taking immediate action, striving to avoid foreclosure or helping you obtain valuable time to reorganize your finances.
Most of our clients come into the office feeling overwhelmed and distraught. Some believe they must move out of the home, not knowing what their rights may be or how long they really have before the bank will take over the home. Too often, they don't realize what other options exist and that they have legal rights to protect. The attorneys and staff of the Appel Law Group recognize that nothing is more debilitating to a family than being deep in debt and becoming homeless. You should take the time to consult with an attorney to secure your family's financial stability.
The Appel Law Group is one of several firms in the state that handle foreclosure defense cases. We represent individuals and families throughout Florida and strive to give personal and professional service to our clients. In doing so, we will travel to the courthouse in your location or appear telephonically on your behalf. Don't hesitate to contact us no matter where your home is located. A foreclosure is a stressful event in anyone's life. An initial consultation with our firm, in person or over the phone, could help limit your anxiety during this difficult time
