If you are behind on your mortgage, facing foreclosure or stuck in a bad loan, look for organizations offering “Mortgage Delinquency and Default Resolution Counseling” services. Organizations are listed in alphabetical order, by city.

THE FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSION (FTC) PROHIBITS ANY “NON-ATTORNEY” FROM NEGOTIATING MORTGAGE DEBT ON BEHALF OF A DISTRESSED HOMEOWNER. YOU SHOULD BE SKEPTICAL OF ANY “NON-ATTORNEY” ORGANIZATION’S ABILITY TO PROVIDE THE ASSISTANCE YOU NEED TO PREVENT FORECLOSURE!

Wisconsin Foreclosure Attorney Case ReviewsMany of these organizations will end up recommending that you retain a foreclosure attorney. Most experienced foreclosure attorneys prefer to represent homeowners from the beginning of negotiations. Negotiating yourself or through a non-attorney third party can actually do harm, so we recommend a FREE FORECLOSURE ATTORNEY CONSULTATION before you do anything else! You can also speed up the process by completing our ONLINE FORECLOSURE ATTORNEY EVALUATION. Your completed form is immediately routed to a foreclosure attorney licensed to practice in your state. You will receive a phone call with results and any further questions.
