A federal bankruptcy judge in New Orleans has imposed sanctions on the mortgage servicer Lender Processing Services (LPS). Federal judge Elizabeth Magner imposed the sanctions after she concluded that LPS deliberately committed fraud on the court when it submitted a "sham" affidavit and gave false testimony in a foreclosure action in her court.
LPS has been under an increasing level of scrutiny after allegations arose that LPS falsified documents in some of their foreclosure cases. Additionally, LPS has been accused of misrepresenting the amounts that homeowners actually owed on their mortgages.
If your home is in foreclosure and LPS is the servicer of your mortgage, contact a Florida Foreclosure Defense Lawyer. Florida Foreclosure Defense Lawyers know how to combat these types of fraud and will fight for your legal rights.
