Free SoCal Legal Clinics To Advise Homeowners Facing Foreclosure

In Orange County, California, KPCC Radio 89.3 FM reports:
  • Starting this week, some struggling Orange County homeowners are eligible for free help. KPCC's Susan Valot says a series of legal clinics that starts tomorrow is geared toward Asian-Americans.

  • The Asian Pacific American Legal Center will host three free clinics – two this month and one next month.(1) They're for homeowners who face foreclosure or who might be victims of predatory lending. Attorneys will review each case, explain the property owner’s legal rights and offer advice about "short" sales, loan modification, and defending against eviction.
