Clarity starts with a conversation

You don’t have to figure this out alone.

Foreclosure can bring difficult questions. An attorney can help you understand where you stand—and what you can do next.

Make sense of the paperwork

A notice from your lender or the court can feel overwhelming. An attorney can review what you’ve received and explain what it means for you.

Understand your options

Get guidance on the paths that may be available, from discussing a loan modification to responding to a foreclosure lawsuit.

Talk through your circumstances with a New York foreclosure attorney, so you can make a more informed decision about what comes next.

A few questions
you may have.

Every situation is different. Here are some helpful things to know before requesting an evaluation.

Do I need to be in foreclosure already?

No. If you’re seriously behind on payments, have received a notice from your lender, or are worried a foreclosure case may be coming, you can request an evaluation. Choose “Something else / not sure” if none of the situations fits.

Can an attorney stop my foreclosure?

No outcome can be promised. An attorney can review your case, explain potential defenses or alternatives, and help you understand which options may still be available. The answer depends on your loan, the stage of the case, and your circumstances.

What if a court date or sale is coming up?

Seek legal help promptly and keep track of the deadlines in your paperwork. Include the date in your request. Submitting this form does not stop a foreclosure, extend a deadline, or guarantee that an attorney can act before your court or sale date.

Is the case evaluation really free?

The initial case evaluation is free, with no obligation to hire an attorney. If you decide to pursue legal representation, discuss fees and the scope of the work directly with the attorney before agreeing to services.

Is this a law firm or a government program?

Neither. NewYorkForeclosureHelp.com is a service connecting New York homeowners with attorneys. We are not a law firm, a lender, or a government agency. An attorney who reviews your request will determine whether they can assist you.

What should I have ready for a conversation?

Gather any letters from your mortgage company, court papers, a recent mortgage statement, and any scheduled court or sale dates. Information about previous loan modification attempts can also help. You do not need to upload documents to this form.
