It all comes down to this: ASSUME NOTHING, CHALLENGE EVERYTHING. THE TRUTH IS THAT YOU DON’T KNOW ALL THE ASPECTS OF THE TRANSACTION IN WHICH YOU EXECUTED “LOAN DOCUMENTS” AND YOU DON’T KNOW IF THEY WERE “LOAN DOCUMENTS”. YOU ONLY KNOW THEY HAD A LABEL ON THEM AND YOU WERE EXPECTING A LOAN. THEY WERE […]

Most of the long-standing transactions with homeowners were falsely dubbed as “mortgage loans.” And most of the false premises are compounded by additional false premises in the form of forbearance, modification, and other agreements that effectively change the name of the designated “lender” and conceal the absence of an unpaid loan account by many layers […]

The basic idea is not to give a single inch. If you do, you lose. Don’t accept a single assumption or presumption as though it was really true. It isn’t. Always focus on what is missing.

The articles appearing on this blog and appearing for the next two weeks have been written in advance and scheduled for publication.

The goal for homeowners should be to win the case, not to delay it or get a settlement. No meaningful settlement will be offered until you have demonstrated that you are in it to win it, which means that you are truly ready to go to trial. Until then, you present no risk to the […]

Foreclosure mills CAN win because they make a claim, and the system gives them relief unless there is a legally recognized defense alleged, presented and pursued. Homeowners are not required to prove anything. They only need to stop their opposition from proving a claim. Homeowners CAN win even if they did breach a loan agreement […]

What you need to realizeĀ is that this is all about technical law. It is not an argument. It doesn’t matter whether the act was ministerial or could be labeled as anything else. The question is simply whether they did it. Don’t get lost in the weeds. If they did it, then the company that was […]

In one case that I eventually won in 2016, I actually Titled a pleading, “At what point do this Court’s orders mean anything?” After reviewing approximately 10,000 cases starting in 2006, I have arrived at the conclusion that judges are unintentionally or unwittingly being drafted into an illegal scheme. Take some examples: Suppose John Smith […]
