Video - First Critical Mistake In Alabama Ejectment Lawsuit - Failing To Answer The Complaint

If we don't answer the lawsuit (the complaint) then the mortgage company wins. Even if the foreclosure was bogus. Even if the foreclosure came about by fraud. If you don't answer the lawsuit, you lose.

Many people come to see us who don't answer and the court enters a default judgment against them. The time runs out to set aside that default judgment and then they show up at our office. There is nothing we can do.

Don't make this mistake. Instead fight back - at least answer the lawsuit.
