Frequently Asked Questions

Surplus funds are the excess money remaining from a foreclosure sale after the mortgage debt, fees, and costs are paid. In California, this money legally belongs to the former homeowner, not the bank. These funds can range from thousands to hundreds of thousands of dollars.

The best way to determine if you have surplus funds is to contact our office. We can check with the county court where your foreclosure occurred to verify if any funds are available for claim.

The timeline varies depending on the county and complexity of the case. Typically, the process takes anywhere from a few weeks to several months. Our team works diligently to expedite your claim as quickly as possible.

No! We work on a contingency basis, meaning you only pay us if we successfully recover your surplus funds. If we don't win your case, you owe us nothing.

We serve all 58 counties in California! Our experienced attorneys can handle surplus funds cases anywhere in the state.
