Chicago Homeowners in Foreclosure

Homeowners in foreclosure find themselves in a frightening and unfamiliar situation. They’ve fallen behind in mortgage payments, usually due to a business failing or job loss, unexpected expenses or another unfortunate circumstance. Missing mortgage payments is only one part of more complex financial distress.

What makes the situation worse are the complexities of the legal system. The typical homeowner has never been involved in litigation, much less the foreclosure process. The foreclosure process is highly procedural and confusing to those not trained in the law. Complicating matters further is the fact that some of the defenses that may exist to a foreclosure can be found in federal law, while the litigation almost always takes place in state court.


The attorneys at Perl & Goodsnyder practice foreclosure litigation and are able to assist homeowners navigate the process. For more information, please call our Chicago office at 312/243-4500 or visit our website at perlandgoodsnyder.com.
