Our team combines experience with unwavering determination to protect your most valuable asset – your home.

This guide focuses on the legal services Dedannan offers specifically to combat repossession and navigate the court system involved:

  3. Navigating the Repossession Court Process: Guiding you through the legal system.


Exposing Unfair Tactics: Building a Strong Defence

Our meticulous approach involves a deep dive into the lender's case, searching for vulnerabilities:

 

  • Loan Document Review: We meticulously examine your loan agreement for any errors, misleading clauses, or predatory lending practises. These could be grounds to challenge the repossession process in court

  • Court Order Scrutiny: We ensure the legitimacy and accuracy of all court orders related to the repossession. Procedural errors or violations of due process can provide leverage in your defence.

  • Loan Servicer Investigation: We assess how the loan servicer handled your account. We search for instances of improper communication, unfair late fees, or a failure to consider hardship modifications. These issues can strengthen your case when presented in court.


Building a Strong Defence: Protecting Your Homeownership Rights

At Dedannan, we understand the emotional and financial strain of facing repossession. Our mission is to empower you to fight for your home:

​​

  • Compelling Defence Strategy: Our team meticulously tailors a defence strategy to your specific situation. We gather evidence, analyse relevant case law, and identify legal arguments to challenge the repossession in court.

  • Researching Favourable Precedents: We leverage our legal expertise to research court rulings (precedents) involving similar circumstances. Favourable precedents establish legal principles that judges are likely to follow, bolstering your case significantly.


Exploring Alternatives to Repossession: Seeking Solutions to Stay in Your Home

Beyond contesting the repossession in court, we explore options to keep you in your home:

  1. Negotiating Loan Modifications: We can facilitate communication with your lender to explore possibilities like extending the loan term, reducing the interest rate, or establishing a more manageable repayment plan.

  2. Mediation: We can guide you through the mediation process, where a neutral third party facilitates communication to find mutually beneficial solutions with the lender, potentially avoiding court altogether.
