I have paid to reinstate while in foreclosure. I have to file an answer to the foreclosure complaint and am not sure how to.

I have sent the reinstatement amount to the lawyer, who has forwarded to the loan servicer. I have to file an answer to the original foreclosure complaint so that the case can be dismissed. I don't know how to "answer" all of the paragraphs as my estranged husband had intercepted the information to default/foreclosure. I was given a copy of the complaint by banks lawyer, but I don't know how to correctly respond an answer, especially since I have paid the reinstatement amount in full. I want to do this correcly so there are no complications due to my inexperience in the legal aspects of the court documents. I am filing Pro Se, as I could not afford another lawyer (have divorce lawyer). - Is this your question? Add additional information

Please don't make the mistake of going at this alone!

I never cease to be amazed at the fact that in today's world many people assume that they can go to court and handle litigation on their own (unless of course you are a lawyer yourself)(Even then, you learn pretty quickly that a lawyer who has himself/herself for a client has a fool for a client).

Since you indicate that you cannot afford an attorney, go here and see if you qualify for a lawyer free of charge: http://www.illinoisattorneygeneral.gov/about/probono.html.

Best of luck to you!
