  • Jeffrey Jackson & Associates, PLLC does not practice bankruptcy law. Many of our potential clients ask us about bankruptcy as an option. You can file for bankruptcy, which does provide an automatic temporary stay, to avoid foreclosure or eviction. Although sometimes bankruptcy is the only option, it is advisable to consider all other remedies first with help from knowledgeable legal professionals. At Jeffrey Jackson & Associates, PLLC, we believe bankruptcy should be a last option to be explored only if non-bankruptcy strategies are not likely to lead to the desired outcome. If you are currently in bankruptcy or were in bankruptcy, we still may be able to help you stop foreclosure or eviction outside of the bankruptcy context.

  • Federal laws like Regulation X (RESPA) are on the homeowners’ side – but you may need experienced professionals to force through a modification that you have not otherwise been able to get on your own. If your lender violates Regulation X or other applicable debt collection laws during the modification process, money damages are available for economic loss and emotional distress. Even if Jeffrey Jackson & Associates, PLLC cannot get you a modification without filing a lawsuit first, settlements in lawsuits frequently result in a sustainable loan modification.

  • Many potential clients are surprised to hear that it is not too late to keep their home after a foreclosure sale. Texas law allows for post-foreclosure lawsuits to “set-aside” the foreclosure sale for many reasons, including violation of the non-judicial sale statutes, lack of standing to foreclose, and fraud associated with mortgage assignments and transfers. Jeffrey Jackson & Associates, PLLC will fight to keep you in your home while your case is litigated and our professionals will advise you of all available options to keep the home during all stages of the post-sale case.
