Facing foreclosure can be one of the most stressful and challenging experiences for any homeowner. The prospect of losing your home can feel overwhelming, but with the right legal support, you can explore various options to protect your property and financial future. A skilled California foreclosure lawyer with Shapero Law Firm can provide invaluable assistance at every stage of the foreclosure process, from pre-foreclosure interventions to post-foreclosure remedies.
Pre-foreclosure is the period after you’ve missed mortgage payments before your home is sold at a foreclosure auction. During this critical time, you can explore alternatives to foreclosure, such as negotiating with your lender or pursuing legal actions to halt the foreclosure process.
One of the primary strategies a California foreclosure lawyer with Shapero Law Firm can employ is filing civil lawsuits against lenders and servicers. If your lender or mortgage servicer has violated laws or engaged in unfair practices, a lawsuit can help address these issues. An experienced attorney can identify legal violations, such as improper loan servicing, failure to provide required notices or predatory lending practices. Holding these entities accountable could stop the foreclosure and even obtain compensation for damages.
Our firm has a 95% success rate in obtaining Temporary Restraining Orders (TROs) to halt foreclosure sales. A TRO is a court order that temporarily prevents the foreclosure sale of your home, giving you time to explore other options. A Preliminary Injunction can provide a longer-term solution, stopping the foreclosure process while your lawsuit is pending. These legal tools can protect your home from being sold at auction, giving you the necessary breathing room to negotiate with your lender.

Even after a foreclosure sale has occurred, that doesn’t mean you’ll lose your home. The foreclosing entity and trustee must comply with all federal and state foreclosure laws. A California foreclosure lawyer with Shapero Law Firm will thoroughly review the foreclosure process to identify any legal violations. If we discover that the lender or trustee failed to follow proper procedures, there may be grounds to challenge the foreclosure sale and potentially rescind it. Doing so could allow you to regain ownership of your home.
In some cases, the sale of a foreclosed home generates surplus funds that exceed the amount owed on the mortgage. As the former homeowner, you’re entitled to these funds. However, claiming these funds can be a complicated process. An experienced California foreclosure lawyer can assist you in navigating the legal requirements and paperwork necessary to obtain any surplus funds due to you, ensuring that you receive the financial compensation you deserve.
Losing your home to foreclosure often means losing any equity you built in the property. However, there may be opportunities to recover some of this lost equity. You might be entitled to compensation if there were legal issues with the foreclosure process or if your lender engaged in unfair practices. Shapero Law Firm will investigate all potential avenues for recovering lost equity, helping you mitigate the financial impact of the foreclosure.
Facing foreclosure is a daunting experience, but you don’t have to go through it alone. When you choose Shapero Law Firm, you’ll work with a dedicated California foreclosure lawyer who will provide the support and legal guidance you need.

I contacted Sarah when I was facing tough legal issues. Although I never met her in person she ended up being an amazing advocate, tough negotiator and very knowledgeable representation. In all my communication Sarah was clear, thorough and very neutral about my position and options. I’ve had multiple dealings with attorneys…so I’m experienced. I would give Sarah top ratings across the board.
I have worked with many in the past and Sarah is great with understanding my goals and working with me to create a plan that fits those goals. She has assisted on a number of real estate transactions and legal matters for me and is always available, communicative, and presents all options with risks and costs so we can decide the best route. Highly recommend.
