If you fall behind on making your mortgage payments for several months you could be facing foreclosure. In foreclosure, the lender will force the sale of your home and may sue to recover all or some of the remaining balance.
Talk to a Seattle foreclosure attorney who may be able to negotiate with the lender on your behalf to work out terms to avoid foreclosure. If that is not an option, the attorney can determine what course of action is best in your situation and advise you on how to minimize harm to your credit rating and financial circumstances.
No matter what your legal issue may be, it is always best to seek legal help early in the process. An attorney can help secure what is likely to be the best possible outcome for your situation and avoid both unnecessary complications or errors.
Prepare for your consultation by writing down notes of your understanding of the case, jot down questions and concerns for the attorney, and gather your documents. Remember that you are trying to get a sense of whether the attorney has your trust and can help you address your legal issues. Questions should include how the attorney intends to resolve your issue, how many years he/she has been practicing law and specifically practicing in your area, as well as how many cases similar to yours the attorney has handled. It can also be helpful to broach the subject of fees so that you understand the likely cost and structure of your representation by a specific attorney and/or legal team.
For most consumer legal issues, the size of the practice is much less important than the experience, competence, and reputation of the attorney(s) handling your case. Among the most important factors when choosing an attorney are your comfort level with the attorney or practice and the attorney’s track record in bringing about quick, successful resolutions to cases similar to yours.
