Program Description

 Civil Justice (CJ) has launched the Foreclosure Legal Advice Program. Homeowners facing foreclosure, who do not have legal representation, may obtain free legal consultations with an attorney experienced with Maryland foreclosure law. CJ connects households, in all Maryland counties and Baltimore City, to foreclosure resources. Based on the unique circumstance of the household, CJ connects them with housing counselors, organizations offering free legal help, and/or CJ’s statewide network of affordable foreclosure defense attorneys.   

CJ also offers the Title Tune-up program for households denied a loan modification and/or mortgage assistance for not being the title holder. The Title Tune-up program provides households free legal advice and representation for households to acquire a clear title to their home.
