Paul E. Stansen

For anyone going through a short-sale, it is a horrible process without an attorney. Paul Stansen proved to be a great help in dealing with my lender and getting my short-sale approved. Once I provided him with all of the necessary financial information, he took charge of everything from submission t...o final approval. Paul was tenacious in his follow-up communications with my lender and always kept me updated. For his services, his fee structure is very fair and reasonable. Now, I have the ability to recover my credit and purchase a home in three years instead of ten. I HIGHLY, HIGHLY, HIGHLY RECOMMEND PAUL STANSEN!

Paul demonstrated a high degree of knowledge and experience with the real estate short sale process. From our initial analysis, we were educated and informed through his straightforward communications. Our mortgage with a loan servicing center (not a bank) proved to be complex & required multiple neg...otiations for short sale approval. On our behalf, Paul successfully negotiated the resolution of our second mortgage with a difficult lender, paving the way for approval of the first mortgage short sale. Despite a total lack of transparency of the lenders throughout, Paul remained focused, purposeful & honest with us at every step and every new obstacle. His fees were more than reasonable particularly given that our short sale took 16 months. We appreciate his diligence & tenacity.

My wife and I would highly recommend Paul as an attorney for help with a short sale. In fact if we have a legal issue in the future we know who we will go to for help. He is aggressive in a good way, in your corner, to the point and keeps the focus on the facts so you can relax. We felt confident in ...his initial analysis of our situation, and then after hiring him to handle our short sale move forward there was little we had to do. Paul took over, quickly made contact with the bank to get the calls to stop. We never had to talk to the bank. All the threatening letters and material the bank sent we simply faxed to Paul. The bank incorrectly had us down for wanting a loan modification which we never asked for. Paul worked aggressively to get them to fix the mistake fast. We could not believe how quickly Paul then got the bank to signoff on the short sale. He not only got approval for us, but much needed money to relocate and specific language that says the bank cannot come after us for the amount we were short on the mortgage. We feel as if a giant weight has been lifted from our family and now have a fresh start. He's worth every penny. Like all professionals he knows his craft. You just need to follow instructions and stay out of the way. We already have recommended Paul to our family and friends should they need his services.

I hired Paul to help me with a loan modification and he failed to turn the documents such as bank statements, pay stubs etc. The bank called me and said that they had not received any documents. When I called Paul I would leave a message and he took 3 days to call me back. I asked him about the docum...ents and he jumped down my throat like I did something wrong. The bank continued to call me and say that they had only received a portion of the paperwork. Needless to say I am about to lose my home and he will not return my calls. Now I need an attorney to sue my attorney. I cannot say anymore because I am so angry that I would say something unprofessional and my post would be removed. DO NOT GIVE PAUL STANSEN A DIME! RUN!

Mr. Stansen has been a huge help in helping my clients resolve very challenging circumstances. He is upfront about his fees, services and is able to layout the options available and explain the most likely outcomes. I am often amazed at the promptness of his correspondence and ability to facil...itate the most advantageous outcome.
