Staying Real Estate/Sheriff Sales

Wilmington and Newark Bankruptcy Attorneys

Stop Foreclosure and Avoid Sheriff Sales

After foreclosure, houses are sent to a SheriffSale where they are frequently sold for less than the mortgage. It is not uncommon for banks and other lenders to then seek the amount remaining on the mortgage from the former homeowners.

You can avoid the financial burden created by a Sheriff Sale and the difficulty of losing your home by filing for bankruptcy.

At Rahaim & Saints, we help clients in New Castle County, Kent County, and throughout Delaware, file for bankruptcy in an attempt to stop home foreclosure. Our experienced bankruptcy lawyers have a comprehensive understanding of both Delaware foreclosure laws and real estate law. They use this knowledge and experience to help clients stay in their home, avoid extra payments and obtain debt relief.

Contact Rahaim & Saints for a free, no obligation consultation.

We will take the time to explain the difference between Chapter 7 bankruptcy and Chapter 13 bankruptcy, as well as the pros and cons of each. We will also help you determine whether bankruptcy is a viable option for you and your family.
