What can a lawyer do in Washington state to stop a home foreclosure in my mom’s situation?
July 2nd, 2009B asked:
My mom and my step dad have declared bankruptcy one or two times in the last 10 years. My older brother now lives with them because his health hasn’t been so great for some time. Needless to say their credit isn’t so good after filing for bankruptcys. Now I hear the bank has gone to foreclose their home and they say to us, their adult children that they have their lawyer working on it but don’t tell us much else. My parents havent made such great choices about their money in the past so we are pretty skeptical. Not only that a majior reason why they are in this finacial hell is because my step dad fell for an internet e-mail scam. I and my brother am trying to help them as much as we can with our own practical smarts but they haven’t told us any details so far. From what we gather my parents could be housless come Febuary. What can be done to help them legally and, or what would you do about all this?
I don’t know what form of bankruptcy they have filed this time.. but they say they will be required to pay all of their bankruptcy debts off and keep up with all of their incoming future bills they will have too.
Step dad works two jobs one as a school janitor and the other as a large route news paper carrier. My mom is on disability. My older brother also works but he is the one who has been sick (and even though its not HIV or AIDS he may also be ill for years to come too) is now working at a Taco Del Mar.
