Foreclosesure Defense
If you have been served a foreclosure notice, take action immediately. Contact the Fort Lauderdale law office of Patrick Giunta, P.A. Real estate attorney Patrick Giunta provides foreclosure defense services and prevents homeowners from losing their home when errors have been made in the foreclosure process.
There are currently a large number of questionable companies advertising that they provide foreclosure defense services. Some provide a legitimate service, but many of them have little leverage when it comes to actually preventing a foreclosure once it’s begun. And they cannot help you in court.
At Patrick Giunta, P.A., we have both the real estate knowledge to negotiate a loan workout in a pre-foreclosure situation, and the legal ability to defend you in court if a foreclosure proceeding has already begun.
Florida Building Code Changes
The changes in Florida Building Code on March 15, 2012, did more than just present challenges for new construction and remodeling projects. Many building permits were held up to ensure conformance to the new code. If a homeowner moved forward with a project or a contractor was unaware of the changes, projects could be in violation of the new codes.
Construction law is always evolving, requiring an attorney who possesses more than ongoing knowledge of the laws and any changes. Patrick Giunta — the founder of our law firm — not only possesses sophisticated knowledge and extensive experience, but he also has a background working in the construction industry. He has also conducted numerous seminars with national businesses and presented Continuing Legal Education (CLE) materials.
