About Joshua
Biography
After representing corporations in financial, real estate and litigation matters I chose to redefine my role in the legal community and focus upon helping the everyday consumer. Rather than fighting for a corporation I now represent the the Davids fighting against the Goliaths. As of today we have managed to help thousands of distressed homeowners to save their homes via loan modification and Chapter 13 bankrtupcy. For homeonwers who are looking to get away from an underwater property, we are the preeminent short sale law firm in the country, so much so that we are the go-to recourse for title companies and other attorneys who need help dealing with difficult and uncooperative banks.
