FLORIDA SURPLUS FUNDS RECOVERY

This involves the legal process of assisting former property owners in reclaiming surplus funds generated from foreclosure sales and/or tax deeds. When a property is sold at auction for an amount exceeding the outstanding mortgage balance and any associated liens, the remaining funds (surplus) are rightfully owed to the former owner. However, navigating the legal requirements to claim these funds can be complex.

What We Do…

  1. Initial Consultation and Case Evaluation: Assessing client eligibility for surplus funds recovery and advising on the necessary steps.
  2. Claim Preparation and Filing: Preparing and submitting the required legal documentation to the appropriate court or trustee to initiate the claim.
  3. Representation in Court: Representing clients in hearings to address disputes, creditor claims, or challenges to the surplus fund disbursement.
  4. Lien and Creditor Negotiations: Identifying and negotiating with lienholders to maximize the amount recoverable by the client.
  5. Fraud Prevention and Legal Compliance: Ensuring compliance with Florida laws and protecting clients from fraudulent claims or entities.
