    “I would highly recommend Attorney Haynes if the need arises!”
    I wanted to take this opportunity to thank Attorney Benjamin Haynes of Haynes and de Paz, P.A. for the counsel and guidance provided by him and his firm during my recent real estate foreclosure activity. His recommended approaches provided me the time necessary to list and complete a “short sale” of my property. Real Estate Foreclosure activities are often convoluted and intimidating and engaging Attorney Haynes was an excellent decision on my part. His representation enabled me to concentrate on moving forward while he dealt with the intricacies’ of the myriad Foreclosure statutes. With his assistance I was able obtain much needed relief from the pending Foreclosure action. I would highly recommend Attorney Haynes if the need arises.

    “If you are in need of foreclosure defense, look no further.”
    If you are in need of foreclosure defense, look no further. Ben was on top of everything and his communication between myself and the bank was stellar. He discussed strategies with me and counseled me towards the possible outcomes of each strategy. Before I hired Ben to represent me, I was lost, confused, and a little bit scared of the banks. Now, I've got a lawyer for life and peace of mind to go along with it.

How can Haynes Law Group help? 

The process itself can be confusing, which means you should consider hiring legal counsel from an Orlando foreclosure surplus lawyer to guide you through the process. If one misses a deadline or files paperwork with mistakes, they may be legally blocked from receiving the foreclosure surplus funds in Florida!

Florida Statute 45.032 (c) states that “Surplus funds are the funds remaining after payment of all disbursements required by the final judgment of foreclosure and shown on the certificate of disbursements.” Florida Statute 45.032 (2) further states that “There is established a rebuttable legal presumption that the owner of record on the date of the filing of a lis pendens is the person entitled to surplus funds after payment of subordinate lienholders who have timely filed a claim.

In order for a homeowner to collect these foreclosure surplus funds, one must properly notice the court within a specific time frame in order to be eligible to win the money. Many times, the second or third lien holders, often a bank or government entity, will try and collect these funds that should belong to the homeowner. This is where having a lawyer that has handled foreclosure surplus cases in Florida can come into play.
