How quickly do attorney fees accrue on a property that has gone into foreclosure?
Q. I am working on a property that is in foreclosure in WA state. It is 2 months into the process, $11,500 in back payments and taxes and a few thousand in attorney fees for the mortgage holder's attorneys. Is there a ballpark estimate of how much attorney fees will be once the 135 days is up and it goes to sale, and is there any formula for calculating the rate of their charges?

A. HUD prescribes the attorney fees for a foreclosure. Even if the property is not a HUD property, most foreclosure attorneys bill by HUD guidelines. In NJ where I was involved in foreclosures, atty. fees were $1,200.00 per file. That does not take into account expenses, which can be many times that amount. There is title work, securing the property, taxes, accrued interest etc. which can add significantly to the mortgaged amount. For the specific amount in your case, just look at another judgment from the attorney involved in your foreclosure. They usually bill the same fee on all files if they work in volume. Good luck, I hope this helps.

Where can I find an attorney that specializes in indigent criminal defense?
Q. I have a friend who is being wrongly accused of something he hasn't done, and is currently incarcerated behind it. The court appointted attorney that he has, does not have his best interest in mind. The attorney met with my friend once in the last 3 or 4 months and when my friend's family inquire about the case the attorney gives them the run around. My friend and his family can't afford an attorney, so they have pretty much given up hope of him ever coming home. So if there is anyone who knows anyone willing to help my friend, please let me know. Any info or help would be grately appreciated.

A. There aren't criminal attorneys that will take a pro-bono case when there are public defenders to do it. It isn't that the court appointed doesn't have your friend's interest in mind, it is that he has 100 or more other cases, and has to deal with them on the days they come up in court. There is nothing going on with your friend's case - the family will have to wait until the court dates, like everyone else who can't afford an attorney that can hold their hand. If he truly is innocent - it will come out in trial. Harsh reality,and I'm sorry to have to tell you it. Your friend is going to have to reevaluate his life and his friends so that when he does get out, he stays away from the life that has led him to be in the position he is… [cont.]

A. The attorney could get fined, sanctioned, suspended and/or lose their license to practice law -- depending on the severity. Do you mean "negligible" (as in not significantly at fault) or "negligent" (meaning, at fault)?

A. What is the use of having an attorney if the person is trying to do it themselves. It has said only a fool represents themselves (in legal proceedings). Either let the lawyer deal with it or deal with it out of court. If you are willing to let the lawyer deal with it then get another one and do so. If the two agree to try to work it out together (without lawyers - an agreement between two parents that love their child) then do so...it will make the life of the child easier than going through this...if this can't be done then the lawyer and legal action maybe the route to take.

How much does a medical malpractice attorney in CA make on average?
Q. I know I want to go to law school after I get my bachelor's, but I'm still undecided as to what branch of law I'm going to study. Right about now, I've got it narrowed down to corporate attorney, prosecuting attorney, and medical malpractice attorney. So I'm curious as to what they make, even if it's just an average or frame.

A. Stay away from medical malpractice. The insurance industry successfully lobbied congress to cap medical malpractice lawsuits in order to limit their costs. Lawyers don't make much money in that field anymore. This is actually one of the few moves by insurance lobbyists I agree with.

A. Your question says that the letter is to the press. Why would it be unethical to give the letter to the person for whom it was intended? Now, if there is a gag order or something pending, then no. If its unethical, dont do it. The bar rules also give us the responsibility of reporting unethical activity. So basically, once you decide whether its unethical, you are suppossed to them report him.

A. She just needs to sign a statement revoking the power of attorney and/or appointing a new person with power of attorney and make sure a notarized copy is delivered to the former person with power of attorney. Of course, since he still has the old paperwork, you would need to contact any financial institutions where her information is held to let them know of the change.

A. You need to go & see a lawyer. He'll draft the POA for you. I know you like your friend, but make sure the POA states that it is ONLY for things relating to the sale of your motorcycle. You'd be amazed at the amount of times a general POA has been given to a trusted friend or family member & they abuse it by ruining your credit. Once that happens, your ownly course of action would be to try & take that "friend" to court & handle it in a civil trial. Since you gave them permission, there is no crime & police can't help you.
