When is it too late to mount a foreclosure defense?

When the property is sold as a result of a court order or when the property is sold in a non-judicial foreclosure, it's pretty much too late to initiate something. On the other hand, yesterday a matter came into me in which, even though the property is sold, we're going to try to undo the sale because the bank never served the owner of the property. And, as a result, the bank bought in and the bank still holds the property. And I think that we can undo the foreclosure because of the failure to serve the persons on the mortgage. I think we can undo it even after the sale has taken place. I'm Carl Person. I'm a New York lawyer. And my job is to help people stay in their homes.

Can I sue in New York if my cancer diagnosis was delayed?

In New York, if there's a delay in diagnosing your cancer a viable lawsuit will lie if you suffered damage as a result of that delay. By that I mean if the doctors have more difficulty treating it or it's less amenable to treatment, then you have suffered a damage and a viable lawsuit does lie. Hi, my name is Arthur Blitz of Shandell, Blitz, Blitz & Ashley. We have represented people who have suffered at the hands of physicians in medical malpractice. Let us help you.

What medical errors can lead to kidney cancer?

Kidney Cancer is often a silent type of cancer, by the time the patient has symptoms it's often too late. But there are instances where there are symptoms that really would really require a work up that would lead to the diagnosis of the kidney cancer. Or, sometimes where somebody has a study for some other reason (a cat scan/ an MRI)and the doctor is not looking for kidney cancer, but it's right in those films and there missed. That often leads to law suits. I'm Steven North, I specialize in medical malpractice litigation, my office is located in a town house on the Upper East Side of Manhattan, we welcome your call.

Must employers in California accomodate my pregnancy?

Employers must reasonably accommodate pregnancies in California. These accommodations can range from allowing an employee to go to their doctors' visits, whether they be routine visits or visits with a specialist. They also need to accommodate any special needs in the workplace. So, whether there's a restriction to not lift over a certain number of pounds or an employee needs additional breaks to eat consistently or an employee has morning sickness and needs time to come in to work late, employers must accommodate those needs. My name is Sara Schlehr of the Schlehr Law Firm. I work to protect California employees from discrimination and harassment in the workplace.

What medical errors can lead to lung cancer?

Often lung cancer is not symptomatic. That is, the patient doesn't show any signs or symptoms, often until it is too late. The chronic cough, the coughing of blood, and other symptoms. But screening x-rays often are and should be done. It's a standard of care in some instances, typically depending on the age of the person, the history of the person, the smoking history of the person, the family history of the person. And if the clinician, the doctor, doesn't do those screening x-rays, or if they're done, and the x-ray is overlooked, and there is a lesion there, then that will be the basis for a lawsuit. I'm Steven North. I specialize in medical malpractice litigation. My office is located in a townhouse in the upper east side of Manhattan. We welcome your call.

What medical errors can lead to prostate cancer?

Prostate Cancer is a peculiar type of cancer, in that there are standard tests that are done. Screening tests to see whether there is an additional cancer. The PSA test, is the usual test there's a Pre-PSA test also done and there's a whole level of 4.0's the cut off point when caution needs to be exerted by the physician. And I've seen cases where the prostate has gone, the PSA has gone as high as 18 and the doctors for some reason just over look it and they don't see it. The report gets in the doctor's file. The patient is never contacted, and then when symptoms really start developing, it's too late. I'm Steven North. I specialize in medical malpractice litigation. My office is located in a town house, in the upper east side of Manhattan. We welcome your call.

What is the statute of limitations on birth injury lawsuits?

There is a statute of limitations on birth-injury lawsuits in Massachusetts. It's very complicated. The action has be brought within seven years of the child being injured by the medical provider and no later than the child's ninth birthday. It's very important if you feel that you have a child that sustained a birth injury to consult with an experienced lawyer because the statute of limitations is a trap for the unwary. You need advice, you need to talk to an experienced lawyer who can guide you with respect to the ramifications of the statute of limitations in Massachusetts. It's one of the most important things that a parent can do. Many times we get these cases and it's too late and there's nothing we can do for the family that has a damaged child. I'm attorney Tom Kiley. I've been representing the seriously injured and their families in Massachusetts for over three decades.

How do I keep my house if I've been the victim of predatory lending?

If you've been the victim of a predatory loan you do have an opportunity to keep your house. If you've been a victim of predatory loan there are a number of different remedies that are available to you. One of them is recision, which is a cancellation of the contract, putting you back in the same position that you were in before you ever got the loan. Another solution would be loan modification, which is a reworking of the loan and basically bringing down the interest rate and the principle balance that you owe, extending the term of the loan, and that will give you an affordable payment that you can keep in your house. Even if you've been late and you've been in default for months, you can still potentially save your home if you've been the victim. My name is Damien Nassiri, I'm a partner in the law firm Howard and Nassiri, we're based in Southern California and we help people save their homes.

Can I keep my house if I'm a predatory lending victim?

Whether you can keep your house if you're a victim of predatory lending depends. We've seen people who have lost their house because they were unaware of what their rights are or were, and by the time they found out it was too late, the lenders had already foreclosed and have taken their home. There's a possibility you can keep your house, but that's going to depend on whether you have adequate representation and whether someone is representing your interests, because the lender certainly aren't, they're representing their interest. And one of the ways in which you can keep your house is if you hire an attorney who's skilled in this area of law, who can exercise your rights and help you keep your home.

Will my credit score be harmed by debt settlement?

In California, your credit may be harmed by a debt settlement. Most programs are designed to instruct the consumer to stop paying their credit card debt, which is usually the type of debt you’re dealing with, with these programs. When that happens, creditors are allowed to continue to charge you interest, uh, late fees may accrue, and in some of the more extreme situations, uh, you may be the victim of a lawsuit. Uh, so, your credit may be adversely affected. But, it is best that when you are looking around for debt settlement programs you try and find one that has adequate legal representation. Because only a lawyer can make sure your rights are looked out for. I’m Vincent Howard, senior and managing partner of Howard and Nassiri. We work hard everyday representing the consumer, from our headquarters in Orange County, California. If you need an attorney you can trust, go ahead and give us a call.
