Can I get a refund on money paid to an attorney if I am not satisfied?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney D. Nathan Davis (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Davis Law Firm
The answer is, it depends. If a lot of work has been done by your attorney, then, she may not be willing to give back all of the money she has collected from you. Sometimes, just sitting down with your attorney and talking to him or her works out the kinks in the relationship. The attorney may also agree to refund the money because he or she does not want you talking about the attorney badly. It is not a bad thing that you and the attorney are not working out as a team very well. This happens more than you would think and that is because there are two sides. Sometimes, lines of communication get snarled up and then the attorney would rather have you leave than be unhappy. Clients who are not happy are much more trouble than they are worth. Most of the time, the problems are caused by differing expectations of what will happen in a case. You should call the attorney, set up an appointment to meet with the attorney and let the attorney know why you want to meet with the attorney. Most attorneys value their reputation more than fees that you may have paid. If all else fails, you can file a dispute with the fee dispute board which will issue a ruling as to whether you should receive a full refund, a partial refund or no refund.

What is the Status of Mortgage after Bankruptcy?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Dorothy G. Bunce (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at A Fresh Start
After a bankruptcy ends, the mortgage company can foreclose if you don't make the payments. If you are current, under the contract as well as under state law, they cannot foreclose. If you chose to keep the property, you will have to live with the original terms of the loan, although you can apply for a loan modification. If you want to sell, a sale would be handled as if you hadn't filed bankruptcy. If you short sale, the lender must agree to the short sale and cannot sue you to obtain any money that may have been lost on the arrangement. Real estate and contract law governs the relationship between you and the lender

Can you file bankruptcy after your house has been deemed abandoned?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Alan Emmerson Ramos (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Alan E. Ramos Law Offices
The fact that you have moved out of your house would not prevent you from filing bankruptcy. However, ust because you have moved out of your house, your potential liability has not ended. As long as you are on title, you should make sure that you maintain liability insurance on the property. Should someone be injured on your property, you would be liable. If this injury were to happen after you filed a bankruptcy petition, the liability would not be included in your bankruptcy. Also, if you have homeowners' association assessments, the assessments after your bankruptcy filing would not be discharged and would continue to accrue as long as you are on title. You should seek counsel to make sure that you are not creating a larger problem for yourselves.
