The mortgage foreclosure and credit card default crises are also legal crises for many people. Many homeowners are losing their homes and credit card debtors are being subjected to unnecessary financial losses because they lack the ability to navigate through the complex legal processes involved. Although foreclosure and financial losses may be inevitable for many individuals, it is not so for all. Having legal representation can help some homeowners save their homes and some credit card debtors from unnecessary financial losses and credit score penalties.
Recognizing that a judicial response to this crisis was needed, the Butler County Court of Common Pleas, in conjunction with others in the Butler County community, developed the Consumer Credit/Residential Mortgage Foreclosure Diversion Program ("Program"). The Program has been developed through collaboration among a broad spectrum of interested persons and agencies within the Butler County community. The goals of the Program are to provide a court-sanctioned opportunity for credit and legal counseling for the debtor and to facilitate communications between creditors and debtors at the outset of a case so as to make possible an early resolution between the parties and avoid unnecessary litigation and waste of judicial resources.
