Chapter 10 - Caleb Secures A High-Powered Real Estate Attorney Immediately
With the police cruiser backing out of the driveway, Caleb turned his full attention back to saving his family's ancestral home.
He sat down at the wooden kitchen table, pulling out his contacts list to dial Marcus Vance, a top-tier real estate litigator.
“Marcus, it’s Caleb Bennett. I need emergency legal representation regarding an impending bank foreclosure and asset recovery,” Caleb stated.
“Good evening, Caleb. You sound like a man standing on the edge of a cliff,” Marcus replied from his Manhattan office.
“I am. My wife emptied our accounts, and my mother’s estate faces a wrongful foreclosure notice due to fraudulent loan manipulation.”
“Send me the bank notices and the mortgage documents via secure email right now; I’ll review them tonight,” Marcus promised.
“Can we stop the public auction scheduled for the end of the month?” Caleb asked anxiously, gripping the phone tightly.
“If there was financial misconduct or predatory lending involved, we can slap an emergency injunction on the bank by tomorrow morning.”

“Get over to my office at 9:00 a.m. sharp with your mother; we’re going to turn the tables on your wife and the bank,” Marcus instructed.
Caleb hung up the phone, letting out a long, shuddering breath as a glimmer of genuine hope finally pierced the gloom.
