Mortgage Default
As the last few years have established, the world of real estate default is always evolving. It is critical for those in the default space to have the right attorney partnerships to ensure that the continuous evolution of default servicing is met with proper legal planning and processes.
The attorneys at MGS handle every default matter with a commitment to exceeding the expectations of their clients and complying with the requirements of state and federal law.
MGS fulfills this commitment by monitoring every matter from beginning to end—from verifying the note holder’s standing to commence a foreclosure action, identifying and resolving title issues, submitting title claims, initiating first legal, in judicial foreclosures obtaining judgment, providing required notice prior to the sale of property, communicating clearly with clients, with borrowers and with their counsel, and determining the costs and benefits of pursuing a deficiency judgment after a loss.
