Previously recorded 7/13/2021 – Whether retained by a party or sold, the family law legal processes that govern the fate of the marital residence in a divorce action can be quite complicated. Add to that a collateral foreclosure case, and the homeowner is faced with nothing less than a daunting experience, while the foreclosure practitioner must navigate often largely unfamiliar divorce law territory. This webinar will provide a basic overview of the family law issues that often run alongside a simultaneously pending foreclosure, including equitable distribution, domestic violence, custody and support, while providing the tools for how to best navigate them in a foreclosure matter.
