Mortgage Servicing & Foreclosure
Overview
Our Experts
Many homeowners struggle to keep their homes due to mortgage servicing errors, predatory practices, and economic pressures such as rising costs and stagnant wages. These challenges disproportionately impact low-income households, communities of color, older adults, and monolingual Spanish speakers, threatening families’ stability and ability to build intergenerational wealth.
Public Counsel’s Consumer Rights & Economic Justice Project helps homeowners understand their rights, avoid foreclosure, and correct mortgage servicing mistakes. We also advocate for policies that protect homeowners and support housing stability at the local, state, and federal levels.
Our team helps low-income homeowners facing foreclosure understand their rights and explore options to stay in their homes. We provide legal advice and work directly with mortgage servicers to resolve servicing errors and advocate for solutions that protect our clients’ housing and financial stability.
