Homeowner & Consumer Protection
Defending North Carolina Homeowners from unfair liens, foreclosures, and the debt collectors behind them.
Here for Homeowners
We defend North Carolina homeowners against unfair and unlawful liens, foreclosures, and debt collection by HOAs, condo associations, and property management companies.
WE ONLY WORK FOR ONE SIDE
We have never represented an HOA or debt collector and we never will.
If your HOA is using a lien or foreclosure to collect fees you may not even owe, we want to hear from you.
Affording Legal Help
Is the lien less than the cost of a lawyer?
That is exactly what they're counting on.
Our first conversation is always 100% free.
We never charge to discuss your case and decide if we can help.
If We Can Help
We cannot take every case. If we accept your case, it is likely to be on a contingency fee basis.
Contingency Fee?
A contingency fee means that we are paid a percentage of any money you receive or recover when the case is resolved. Win or lose, you won't owe us anything out of your own pocket.
Home is Everything
Your HOA is not always right.
Sometimes they make mistakes. Sometimes they assume no one is checking under the hood.
Call us to discuss a lien, a foreclosure notice, or a debt letter that doesn't make sense to you.
We'll take a look. That's what we do.
