Foreclosure

Andrew was willing and able to fight for what was right with Bank of America. After several long hours, days, months, he called me up with a deficiency claim RESOLVED. Thank you, Andrew! We all go through some tough times in life, but if you hire the right attorney they will fight the battle for you.... Again, thank you Andrew Decker.

Loan Modification

I was struggling with a loan modification involving Ocwen Loan Servicing . They were giving me the run a round and were trying to drag out what should have been a quick process. I hired Mr. Decker hoping he could handle this situation for me. He did so in a timely and professional manner. He is very ...knowledgeable with the loan mod process and was effective in getting this matter resolved. He was easy to get in touch with and always made me feel like I was his most important client. I really appreciate the job he did for me without breaking the bank in the process. I highly recommend Mr. Decker and will definitely use his services again if needed.

Satisfied Client

Attorney Decker worked diligently to have a short sale deficiency case dismissed with a major bank on my behalf. He was knowledgeable in the law related to my case and effectively handled all correspondence and communication from the banks legal representatives. He was thorough in explaining each ste...p to me, answering my questions and offering recommendations that were in my best interest. I highly recommend Andrew Decker.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
