Foreclosure Advice

Avoid Con Artists Who Claim They Can Save Your House

Even though you may feel alone, you are not. Even though your house is in foreclosure, you still have options to keep it. Even though others have approached you to help, the best help may come through the bankruptcy process. People in the communities of Albany and Schenectady have come to the upstate New York law firm of Jerrold W. Bartman, Esquire seeking foreclosure advice.

Sometimes, securing advice from an experienced bankruptcy attorney can open new doors and give you options outside of a short-term home mortgage workout with your bank. Contact us at (518)-864-4167 or toll free at (866)-559-7665 for a free consultation.

Avoid the Trap of a Quick Mortgage Fix

Turning to "outside companies" is often a choice people make when they cannot work out a repayment plan with their bank. Con artists are running amuck in a recession-plagued economy where numerous foreclosures occur every day. With attention to detail combined with bad intentions, they pour through the records of their local County Clerk's office. They find the homes in foreclosure and facing a sheriff's sale.

At the law office of Jerrold W. Bartman, Esquire, we advise our clients to stay away from these companies. In the end, they usually make a bad situation worse. Even the choice of negotiating a mortgage workout with your bank may do little to resolve your serious situation.

The Best Route to Save Your House is Personal Bankruptcy

Our advice in resolving your foreclosure is to encourage the filing of a personal bankruptcy. While many see that decision as some form of embarrassment or failure, a debt settlement is actually an option that will keep you and your family in your home.
