Can I represent myself against foreclosure fraud? Yes, it’s called Pro Se: “By Myself”
“DON’T FIGHT AGAINST THE PROBLEM… DECIDE IT”
“George C Marshall”
Nearly every borrower who contacted me about an impending or actual foreclosure believed it was imperative that they find an attorney to represent them in a foreclosure court action. For three years I believed the same thing. Many judges will suggest it so strongly that a borrower believes it is actually a law, and it is not. But, it makes sense that we believe it. We see him on TV, in the news, in magazines, and of course most lawyers will tell you that he needs a lawyer.
But, the reality is that this so-called mortgage crash is so large and riddled with illegal and criminal behavior that defies what most people consider normal, there are few, very few, lawyers who can win for a borrower.
Lawyers, for the most part, are not familiar with the subject of Mortgage Fraud. Certainly not as familiar as they would have you believe. I have resented this fact for a long time. Like I said, most of my clients have been advised by a judge or a lawyer that they absolutely must have a lawyer. They’re right, except for one thing. Shouldn’t I say “they absolutely must have a good lawyer”?
You are no better off with an uninformed attorney representing you.
Can you afford a lawyer right now? What if you think you can’t afford a lawyer? Should that automatically mean you have no choice but to leave your home?
Well, there is another way. You do not have to hire an attorney to start the fight to save your home. In my opinion, you can’t win with 99.9% of the lawyers in your state anyway. If that’s not true, why do we hear so much about mortgage fraud and so little about mortgage fraud victims winning their cases?
The reason you don’t know what to do is because trials and courts are not your areas of expertise. But, you can be strong if you get the right kind of help. You can do much of what a lawyer should do at the beginning of a foreclosure threat. You can do it as Pro Se, which means “I am representing myself” if you have the right help and accurate information.
You can learn to use your constitutional civil rights to force the courts to treat you fairly.
Now I think you finally have the upper hand. But, like anything new, you must learn the rules to play the game.
DON’T MOVE FROM YOUR HOUSE WITHOUT IT’S A FAIR FIGHT! YOU CAN WIN.
