Florida attorneys offering free help to homeowners facing foreclosure

In a recent news release from The Florida Bar News, Attorneys in Florida have announced the formation of, FLASH - Florida Attorneys Saving Homes. The Florida Bar, The Florida Bar Foundation, Florida Legal Services, and the Real Property Probate and Trust Law Section all are taking part in this effort.

If you are one of the thousands of Floridians who have fallen behind on payments or are about to fall behind, you can contact FLASH by using their toll free number, (866) 607-2187. The phones are answered during the week from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.

This pro bono project is the first to place homeowners and volunteer attorneys together before the foreclosure starts according to Kent Spuhler, executive director of Florida Legal Services, Inc.
