Moreover, if your home loan includes prepayment penalties for longer than 3 years, balloon payments that mature in less than 10 years, late fees that exceed five percent (5%) of the monthly payment, and/or an extension of credit regardless of borrower’s ability to pay, you may also have valid claims against your lender under the Florida Fair Lending Act (FFLA).

- ForeclosureWe strive to do so, by providing the very best legal representation to our clients throughout the State of Florida. We are dedicated to the representation of cases involving primarily foreclosure defense, and defending and upholding the rights of victims of mortgage fraud. The approach by the Law Office of Omar J. Arcia to foreclosure defense cases is rather unique and focuses primarily on investigating mortgage fraud committed by the lender at the closing, and identifying whether the lender has the proper security instruments to proceed with a foreclosure. The goal in every foreclosure defense case is actually to place the lender on the defensive and create leverage for our clients in order to negotiate the best settlement possible, which at times, includes a restructuring of their current home loan.
- Debt CollectionThere are at least three (3) different avenues by which consumers can fight back against harassment and the never ending phone calls by debt collectors — The Telephone Consumer Protection Act (“ TCPA “), the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (“ FDCPA †), and the Florida Consumer Collection Practices Act (“ FCCPA †). Each of these, individually or together, when properly presented can result in huge damages in favor of consumers and against debt collectors.
