Calabasas, CA (PRWEB) June 17, 2011
Philip Kramer, lead attorney for Kramer Kaslow, not too long ago released comments concerning a Wall Street Journal post detailing the foreclosure crisis. Sheila Bair, chairman of the Federal Deposit Insurance coverage Corp., is quoted in the article from her testimony to a Senate committee final month. “Flawed mortgage-banking processes have potentially infected millions of foreclosures, and the damages against these operations could be considerable and take years to materialize,” said Blair.

The post also reports that last month, the Maine Supreme Court reversed the foreclosure of Dana and Robin Murphy of Auburn, Me., soon after concluding that the mortgage company, a unit of HSBC Holdings PLC, filed “inherently untrustworthy” documents. An HSBC spokesman declined to comment.

The Wall Street Journal reports that, This year, cases in California, North Carolina, Alabama, Florida, Maine, New York, New Jersey, Texas, Massachusetts and other folks have raised inquiries about regardless of whether banks effectively demonstrated ownership.

Philip A. Kramer, a perennial winner of the Southern California Super Lawyer award represents hundreds of consolidated plaintiff litigation clients who have filed suit against the nations six largest lenders. He comments, I believe that the Maine Supreme Court is appropriate. I also believe that the difficulty is widespread universal.

Laurence E. Platt, a banking-market lawyer at K&L Gates in Washington, concedes in the write-up that banks might have been sloppy. But he says, “the genuine assault on the legal program,” are efforts by judges and regional officials to strip lenders of their rightful ownership and make foreclosures impossible.

Philip A. Kramer could not disagree a lot more strongly. If Laurence Platts point of view prevails, then we may possibly as well not have laws. That is not an exaggeration. There are rules and procedures which govern how property is supposed to bought and sold. Ownership is at the heart of the issuance of mortgages and foreclosures. It is not okay for the banks to claim, Oh, proof of ownership? Paperwork? These dont genuinely matter. The banks have been receiving away with murder. Finally, it seems to be coming to an finish.

Far more of Philip A. Kramers comments can be found at the Kramer Kaslow weblog.
