 If you live in New York, and are going through the foreclosure process, there are a number of terms you are going to come across. Today we’ll be talking about a Notice of Computation and a Referee Hearing and what they mean to you in your foreclosure process. How Does the Court Determine How Much I Owe?

 Many New York couples are feeling the pressure right now. Whether it is because they are laid off, or are struggling to keep their small business alive, they are staying home with their significant other during the COVID-19 pandemic. And during this time, they realize that their partner is not right for them anymore.

We both agree that we are not meant for each other.” As Governor Andrew Cuomo continues to extend the closure of businesses for non-essential workers, divorce courts are operating only on an emergency basis and are not accepting new divorce filings. But that does not mean that couples have to wait until the lockdown is lifted to start the divorce process. Right now is the time to move towards developing a d...
