Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Illinois

I had a home that was foreclosed on. It was sold at an auction Feb. 23, 2009. The property is still in my name according to Cook County recorder of deed. I spoke with a lawyer from the firm that handled the foreclosure process for the bank and he stated that they submitted the paperwork in 2009. I was told by a clerk from the Recorder of Deeds office to try and get a document number from the lawyerthat was given when he filed. I called and tried but he's not returning my call. What can I do to have the property taken out of my name? I have a copy of the Report of Sale and Distribution from the Judicial Sales Corporation.
