Answers to Your Most Common Legal Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

What happens if I ignore a Notice of Default?

If you don’t respond, the foreclosure process keeps moving toward a sale date. You still have options at this stage loan modification, reinstatement, or a legal filing that can pause the process but the sooner you act, the more of those options stay open.

The moment you file for bankruptcy, an automatic stay goes into effect. In plain terms, creditors including lenders in a foreclosure must stop collection efforts and legal action against you immediately.

Chapter 7 clears most unsecured debt but may require selling non-exempt assets. Chapter 13 sets up a repayment plan over three to five years, which can let you keep your home or car while you catch up. Which one fits depends on your income and goals, and Ron walks through both with you.

Federal civil cases generally give you 21 days to respond after being served, though some circumstances allow more time. Missing this deadline can result in a default judgment against you, so it’s important to act quickly.

Filing bankruptcy triggers an automatic stay that immediately stops foreclosure. However, in some situations, a lender can ask the court to lift that stay. Whether that happens depends on the facts of your case.
