Gather loan documents, security agreement, promissory notes, mortgage or lien papers, payment history, and any notices. Also collect correspondence and any court filings related to the loan.

Costs may include filing fees, attorney time, and potentially court costs. Many cases are contingency or flat-rate arrangements; we discuss options upfront.

Attorney fees may be recoverable in some cases depending on contract and state law. We explain fee options and potential recovery during your consultation.

Perfection makes a security interest enforceable against third parties; priority determines who gets paid first. Rules vary by filing type, location, and lien type; ask for specifics.
