Real Estate Litigation
& Defense

We always have your best interests in mind

Unlike traditional debt, the recovery of consumer and commercial mortgage loans is more extensive and complex. We're not afraid to take on the difficult cases.

There are many circumstances in which legal action may be necessary to recover monies owed and minimize the long-term financial impact on your business. With significant years of experience representing lenders and loan servicers, our litigators have the necessary skills to command the proper attention in the courtroom. Our ability to listen, communicate, negotiate, and persevere in every case we represent allows us to consistently produce favorable results for our clients.

Our Services Include

Contested Matters

If an unfavorable result is returned that may warrant a challenge, or if a dispute arises that requires a defense, you can count on us to advocate on your behalf. With a unique combination of experience in foreclosure, bankruptcy, and probate, we are your single solution for effective legal representation.

Quiet Title Action/Title Issues

In many real estate transactions, there are title issues that must be cleared up before property can be transferred from the borrower to the lender. If an issue is uncovered, such as an error in the public record or legal description, or a lien priority dispute, our attorneys will work diligently to resolve all defects in order to produce a clear and marketable title.

Counterclaim Defense

When a counterclaim is made by your borrower – or if you are wrongfully being sued - you need experienced legal counsel on your side. Our attorneys will thoroughly review your case and take whatever legal action is deemed necessary to ensure your rights are protected, including denial of the allegations, if warranted, or a mutual release settlement.

Nationwide Attorney Representation

We pride ourselves on the ability to service clients large or small, locally or across the country. Our real estate attorneys are licensed in Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin. For matters outside of these states, we use our own thoroughly vetted and audited attorney network.
