I have a condo in Des Plaines IL that’s gone into the final step of getting foreclosed. I’ve had renters in there for Sept & Oct and they stopped paying rent for November. They also made a deal with the mortgage company and are getting $3500 additionally to move out soon as a relocation package with Select Portfolio Servicing company since they’re currently occupying the my property.

I want to sue them for November’s rent and the $3500 the mortgage company is giving them plus any court and attorney fees! One of the renters also works part time in the foreclosure and short sale field so I think my condo might have even been targeted for this such occasion.

What can I do?

Here is my problem, need help and willing to hire a attorney that can help….

Me and my husband purchased a mobile home back in December. We paid in full. We moved in January, 2009 since they said we couldn\t move in yet in December….

Since we moved in they are giving us a hard time getting a lease, and a title for the home. Now they are trying to evict us. My husband left for the army and wont be back for 6 months.

We have nowhere to go if they evict us. They made an agreement in person, verbal of course, and now they are retracting what they said and are trying to charge us more then what they said.

We have a situation where a “contractor” presented himself as licensed, bonded, etc. (We have an insurance claim)

He has taken over 130K of funds and states work to this amount has been done. This is a blatent lie. We also found out that he never pulled the correct permits and is not licensed. Our home is in shambles, I am 7 months pregnant and the city is doing inspections on the home today. (we just found out he did illegal electrical work).

We HAVE filed a complaint with the Attorney General regarding consumer fraud but believe there was criminal fraud done as well as items pertaining to the IL Construction / Homeowners act.

We do not know what type of attorney we should speak to in order to attempt to gain back the funds so that we can get our house up to code, safe and completed. We were looking @ Construction Attorneys as well as Consumer Fraud attorneys and didnt know which would be more beneficial.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. (Obviously this is just a small summary of our ordeal!) …..Thank you

Hello, I would like to know if it possible to file a lawsuit against HSBC Bank. The reason i want to file one is because, my wife bought a house last year and she is owner and she is the only one on the mortgage.

She recently lost her job. Because of that she did not make house payments for the last couple of months, I was not on the mortgage, it was never a joint account but I recently found out that HSBC reported the late payments on my Credit File with all the three credit service companies!

I have notifed Transunion, Equifax and Experian and filed a dispute. I hope that the late payment info will be removed from my credit report since I was never a co borrower or a joint account holder, but because of this action by HSBC bank i am losing time and money and I am unable to now get a loan for my business. I would like to know what can I do and if I can sue this bank for its false actions.

In Evanston, Illnois, the landlord tenant ordinance says that you have to give at least 48 hours notice to enter the apartment. If I want to show the apartment and the tenant agrees, can I do it in less than 48 hours without getting into trouble?

Is it illegal for a notary not to be present at a refi but still sign and date the docs saying that they were there?

We bought a condo in a three flat downtown in the East Village area and to our dismay, the builder did not do a good job at building the place.

We have had many issues for a building that is only 7 years old. We have been told that we might have a good case against the builder who won’t help us with all of these latent defects. Is this true?

I have a few questions about breaking a lease.

We are moving back to my mom’s house and would like to break the lease. On the lease it does say that if we were to break the lease we would have to pay for the whole year.

1) we didnt have that kind of money which is why we are moving with my mom.

2) they are close family friends. There are things that were suppose to be fixed when we moved in and are still to this date not fixed. The front window is broken, there is a bit of a bug issue, a problem with the electric where our bill is about $600.

We had asked them to get electrican and they got a friend to check it out. There is a pool outside as well as the washer and dryer, we live on the bottom level. We are never home to where electric would be that much. Well that is some of the details, Hope to hear from someone soon,
