New files are entered on the firm's computer system. A foreclosure search is ordered; the summons and complaint is prepared, filed and sent out for service. The litigation is underway! The Foreclosure Practice Group is dedicated to prosecuting the foreclosure action diligently and expeditiously. Each member of the foreclosure team handles a proceeding from commencement of the action to the conveyance of title to the successful bidder. Performance is regularly monitored and measured by the movement of a file and the quality of the work. The entire procedure creates accountability and fosters a sense of responsibility and pride in the firm's staff.

The firm understands that time is money and a slow-moving foreclosure is costly to our clients. Thus, we set internal time lines for the litigation with certain knowledge that our clients evaluate our performance for timeliness and accuracy.

If the debtor files for bankruptcy, our Bankruptcy Practice Group moves quickly to assert the creditor's rights, including motions to dismiss or to lift the stay, where appropriate.

Post sale matters are the province of two more practice groups. The Evictions Group handles a significant volume of summary proceedings throughout New York state.  Sales of bank-owned real estate are handled by the REO Group headed by principal, Vinson J. Friedman.

The firm tracks its files through a custom data base tailored to our needs, its billing system is Visual Pyramid and the spreadsheet software is Microsoft Excel. Some of the other computer applications used by the firm are, Abacus Law, Perfect Practice, Microsoft Word, Corel Word Perfect, Lenstar, Vendorscape, New Trak, I-Clear, Windows Server 2003, Windows XP.
