Consumer Advocate Teams With Noted Attorney Tim McFarlin To Help Borrowers

IRVINE, CA (AttorneyNewswire.com) — August 4, 2010 — Martin Andelman, self proclaimed consumer advocate, helps borrowers facing foreclosure much differently than the attorneys at Irvine based law firm McFarlin & Geurts, LLC.  While both ultimately seek to serve the borrowers who have been dealt a raw deal by our current recession, few similarities between the two exist.

Martin Andelman is a former CEO who now works as a guru / consultant for several companies of several industries.  His blog, Mandelman Matters, found at www.Mandelman.ML-Implode.com, features commentary and sometimes rants on current lending industry news.  By injecting his point of view with humorous jabs targeted at the subjects of the news, he makes learning and staying current with the lending industry an easier pill to swallow.  It is important for borrowers considering loan negotiations to stay current on court decisions, changes to laws, and anything else that may impact the outcome of a negotiation.  His style of writing is a cool glass of water to a normally dry subject matter.

The team of attorneys at McFarlin & Geurts take a much more serious approach to helping borrowers.  They represent borrowers trying to avoid foreclosure in court and in negotiations with their lender.  They apply their expert knowledge of the law to help borrowers stay in their homes and get out of debt.  Timothy McFarlin, an attorney on the team, agrees that borrowers must be more proactive in learning about their money.

“Borrowers need to know how their money works.  They need to understand things like credit and how credit can have such a huge impact on their future.  I’ve seen the information on Martin Andelman’s blog and I think it’s great.  It doesn’t matter how borrowers decide to receive the information, it just matters that they receive it, so people like Martin who educate borrowers play a very vital role in getting the information to the borrowers.  We do what we can to educate our clients as we represent them, but it’s always helpful when the client has a general understanding of the laws at work in their situation.”

Even though Andelman and McFarlin take such different approaches to helping borrowers, the work they do has helped borrowers all over the country.  While one offers commentary and consultations, the other offers legal representation, but both offer options and alternatives to foreclosure and debt.
