Philadelphia VIP, the hub of pro bono legal services in Philadelphia, will be presenting a free CLE program entitled Mortgage Foreclosure - Saving Homes through Negotiations on February 10, 2017 from 8:30 am - 11:00 am. The program will be held at Pepper Hamilton LLP, 3000 Two Logan Square, Philadelphia, PA 19103.
The Residential Mortgage Foreclosure Diversion Program, instituted in April 2008 by the Philadelphia Court of Common Pleas, has provided thousands of homeowners an opportunity to negotiate face to face with lenders’ representatives to save their homes from foreclosure.
The mortgage foreclosure diversion program needs the investment of many pro bono attorneys to help clients negotiate affordable loan modifications, payment arrangements, or otherwise resolve clients’ mortgage foreclosure cases. Volunteer attorneys are asked to put their negotiation skills to work; litigating the mortgage foreclosure case is not expected of volunteers. Volunteers need NO experience in mortgage foreclosure law to participate. Join us in assisting to prevent homelessness in Philadelphia.
Training materials and breakfast will be provided.
Trainers:
- Robert Lukens,Esq.
- Lauren Ascher, Esq., Supervising Attorney, Philadelphia VIP
- CLE Credit Comments: Volunteers will receive a total of 2 free substantive CLE credits in exchange for representing three clients as an On-Call/Emergency Assistance volunteer in the Mortgage Foreclosure Diversion Program or accepting 1 ongoing VIP case within six months of the training.
