My foreclosured was postponed!!

Habashy Law Firm and his staff navigated me expertly through the process, alleviated my concerns and postponed my sale date. I recommend Habashy Law Firm HIGHLY!! They were extremely prompt at responding to my queries and very reassuring throughout the whole process. They have a positive demeanor e...ach time you interact with them. Our case was handled so fast that a couple days later my file was neatly packaged and submitted to the lender. My foreclosure was postponed which is a relief. Even today, I sometimes email them with random questions, they get back to me promptly. Their fees are also very reasonable. I would recommend Mr. Habashy to friends & family!

AMAZING LAW FIRM ----- EASY & SUPERB PROCESS

I am writing to commend the superb services I received from Legal Debt Solutions. Without their help, we would have lost our home! Attorney John Habashy and his staff saved our home from foreclosure. My husband works for the Post Office and his hours were cut. The loss of income made it impossible to... keep up with our mortgage payments. We originally called Bank of America to see if they would work with us on the payment and the only thing they gave us was the “run-around”. They told us that we did not qualify for a loan modification and that they were going to proceed with foreclosure! We really believed that we were going to lose our home and there was nothing we could do about it. We decided to seek legal advice. We contacted Legal Debt Solutions, APC and that’s when things started to change for us. The staff completely took charge of our situation. Within days, the attorney was able to stop the sale of our property and 3 &1/2 months later, we were approved for a loan modification! Our original loan had an interest rate of 6.75%. Legal Debt Solutions negotiated with the lender and we now have a 3.625% interest rate! We can’t tell you how happy we are that we contacted Legal Debt Solutions and we just want to say, 'THANK YOU FOR ALL THAT YOU HAVE DONE FOR US!!!!
