Attorney referral coordination


When your situation calls for a licensed attorney, we coordinate the introduction.

You arrive with your questions written down and your research in hand, organized so the attorney can work from it at your first meeting.

Questions? Call 516-499-1731.

Attorneys we have worked alongside


Over 20 years, we have worked alongside more than 15 independent licensed attorneys.

Each runs their own practice, and each has received a homeowner's research from us, sent at that homeowner's request. If you ask, we will give you the names of attorneys we have worked with.

Every attorney we name is independent: you would be their client, not ours, and they set their own fees.

Ask us about names: 516-499-1731.

Before you hire any attorney


  • Check the license. Look the attorney up with your state bar or your state's court system.
  • Get the fee agreement in writing. Ask questions until you understand it.
  • Hire whoever you choose. You are free to hire any attorney you want, including one we never mentioned, or none at all.

When to call an attorney


Talk to a licensed attorney if any of these apply to you.

  • You have a sale date scheduled.
  • You have been served with a summons and complaint, and the time to respond is running.
  • A judgment of foreclosure and sale has been entered.
  • You are considering asking a court to vacate a judgment or reopen a case.
  • You have a title problem, an estate, a divorce, or a co-owner dispute alongside the loan.
  • Someone has told you that you have a claim against your lender.
  • You are considering bankruptcy.

Not sure? Call 516-499-1731 and describe what you have.

How referral coordination works


Three steps, and nothing moves without your say-so.

We write down your questions

People forget half of what they meant to ask. We help you put it on paper, so you walk in with the list.

We make the introduction

We call the attorney's office, describe the matter and the county, and confirm they handle it before you spend time on a meeting.

We send your research, with your permission

Your research goes ahead of you, organized so the attorney can work from it at your first meeting. We tell you what we will share, and nothing leaves our office until you say yes.

Other ways to find an attorney


Your state and county bar associations run lawyer referral services. Legal aid and legal services organizations provide free representation to people who qualify, and many handle foreclosures. HUD-approved housing counselors can point you to both at 1-800-569-4287.

Talk to a person.


Call 516-499-1731, Monday through Friday, 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM. Saturday appointments are available on request. If we are with another client, leave a message with your name, your phone number, and the county your property is in, and we will call you back.

Free help is also available.

You do not have to pay anyone for help with a foreclosure. HUD-approved housing counseling agencies give free counseling nationwide. Call 1-800-569-4287 or visit hud.gov. Many states and counties also run free foreclosure prevention programs. We want you to know about them, whether or not you ever hire us.

If you have a sale date or a court date coming up, call a licensed attorney today.

We are not a law firm.
