how to i respond to a summons of complaint for forclosure
2 Answers from Attorneys
I would highly recommend you hire or consult with a foreclosure defense attorney to assist you. This is something you want to do face to face in their office so they can read the complaint and look at the evidence presented by the Plaintiff. If you do not list appropriate legal defenses, you will likely have a summary judgement filed by the plaintiff's attorney.
Hire an experienced attorney to prepare an answer and include any defenses available to you. The attorney will review your mortgage documents and negotiate with the lender. If you do not file an answer within twenty days, you will get a default judgment against you and the foreclosure will go through faster. Please feel free to call me at 866-225-4214 for a free consultation. Regards,
