Defending Foreclosures

Experienced Foreclosure Defense Attorney

They didn't tell me that they weren't going to hold my taxes in escrow. I didn't know I was in an adjustable rate mortgage. They say I'm behind, but I'm not. There are many reasons why people face foreclosure and, with the help of an experienced lawyer, there are many ways the law can protect you from foreclosure.

When you need to save your home from foreclosure, litigation may be an option for you. At the law offices of Ryan J. Ruehle, we can help. We represent people throughout Ohio and northern Kentucky in foreclosure defense by taking legal action in state court.

Under the law, there are a few protections in place for people facing foreclosure. Your foreclosure defense may raise a few arguments:

  • You are not behind on your mortgage
  • The mortgage was based on predatory lending practices
  • The mortgage was based on mortgage fraud

Our founding attorney, Ryan J. Ruehle, spent five years as a creditors' rights attorney, so he understands the law from a creditor's perspective. This gives him an edge in foreclosure defense proceedings. He can contact your creditors' attorney directly and protect your interests the smart way — by taking appropriate legal action. We begin by filing an answer in state court once a complaint is filed by your mortgage company and its attorneys.

If you are facing foreclosure, you may have other options as well. These including stopping foreclosure using the bankruptcy code and negotiating a foreclosure work-out with your lender. Regardless of the option you choose, we can help.
