Excellent Attorney!

Chae is an excellent, detailed oriented, knowledgeable attorney who helped me with a short sale in South Florida. Everyone in her office responded quickly and carried through with all the details in a timely manner. She cares about her clients. Highly recommend her and her team.

Great Team for Foreclosure Defense and Loan Modification

They handled our foreclosure defense against the mortgage company lawyers with strong and competent tactics every step of the way. Bought us time to get our finances back on track to be able to see the light at the end of the tunnel. Then they got us a loan modification to keep the house we've had ...for 20+ years. They care about their clients and each person we dealt with from Chae and her partner Will to all of their employees always treated us with respect and truly wanted to help us.~~Jim & Laura

A true champion of the people!

From the first time I spoke to Chae, I felt at ease and as though she truly understood my dilemma and the best way to achieve the desired results. Unfortunately I brought her firm into my battle late into the 9th inning and her very talented partner Mr. Morris was able to achieve nearly the impossib...le and buy me time. All of the folks at her firm are highly responsive and understand the process and are very willing to work with constraints as they come up and respond accordingly. I am in a very undesirable situation that was brought about by a force placed insurance policy on my primarily residence. As a result I am facing foreclosure but hope to receive a modification to save my home and I would not have made it this far without Chae and Wil Morris and the rest of their team.

BEST LOAN MOD/SHORT SALE LAWYER IN FLORIDA!!!!!!!

Hands down the very best loan mod/short sale lawyer in Florida. Chae seems to have great knowledge about how the industry works and knew what my lender would be looking for right off the bat... What I liked the best is that she genuinely cared about my specific circumstances and asked all the right ...questions to make sure the programs I applied for would benefit me and my family the most. Thanks Chae and all the staff at Morris duPont!

Best Decision I Ever Made

Chae duPont is a great attorney and advocate for homeowners. From the initial consultation, I got the sense that she really cares about her clients. She took the time to carefully review my situation and explain all of my options. She even called the bank right then and there just to find out wha...t exactly was holding up my loan modification. She got more information in a 10 minute call to the bank, than I have in six months. Hiring Morris/duPont was the best decision I ever made. The entire staff is very knowledgable and courteous. The communication is great. From Chae on down, there is always someone to take my calls and answer my questions. I can finally sleep at night knowing that I'm in good hands.

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.
