We understand our client’s goals and therefore we successfully resolve most cases via settlement that results in a performing asset or liquidation. In addition to defensive matters, WFZ also specializes in mortgage fraud recovery, helping our clients recover mortgage losses caused by originator, broker or appraiser fraud and negligence. These types of actions include enforcing repurchase obligations and, in some instance, obtaining a pre-judgment Writ of Attachment on a company’s assets.
