The parties involved in your mortgage may have violated the law. Predatory lending actions covered by the Illinois Consumer Fraud and Deceptive Business Practices Act include practices such as deception, fraud, false promise, false pretense, misrepresentation or omission of a material fact. We can examine your mortgage to determine whether any of these tactics were used in the lending, servicing or foreclosure processes. Issues we may uncover can include:
You have rights as a homeowner and consumer. We work to protect these rights from unscrupulous mortgage lenders, title companies and mortgage servicers. If we find evidence that the Illinois Consumer Fraud and Deceptive Business Practices Act has been violated, we can countersue the responsible party.
The Illinois Consumer Fraud and Deceptive Business Practices Act (815 ILCS 505/1) may be applicable to residential and commercial foreclosures. You can use this law to bring suits against predatory lenders and servicers.
