Mother pulled out equity loans with out her son's permission, she now defaulted our home which is under auction.

We paid the mom over 25 years never missed a payment, now she is held hostage in Florida with her daughter as the POA. The the POA will not communicate with us. Realtor wants to shortsale our home to her friend. BK Attorney is asking for more $. We paid her $1800.00 to postpone the auction. We are innocent and a decent family with 8 kids.
A: First, you're not going to get a pro bono attorney to take this case. Second, you need an attorney to review your documents for a full consultation.
