Attorneys: Foreclosure Defense at a Whole New Level – Max Gardner In-person or On video

For attorneys representing homeowners at risk of foreclosure who are up against the largest banks and mortgage servicers in the country…

THREE WAYS TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF MAX…

If you’re an attorney representing homeowners at risk of foreclosure, you’re up against some of the largest banks and mortgage servicers corporations in the world, and you practice in an area of law that is changing, quite literally, almost daily.  To succeed in this environment you need every advantage you can get, and without question, it’s the Max Gardner advantage on which the top foreclosure defense and bankruptcy litigation attorneys in this country rely.

I’ve personally attended Max Gardner’s Securitization and Bankruptcy Litigation Bootcamp at his 160-acre ranch in the western mountains of North Carolina, and quite frankly, I don’t think there’s a professional educational experience anywhere that could claim to be its rival.

Max basically gives attorneys his thirty-year law practice in a box with easy to follow assembly instructions and ongoing support.  And there’s nothing theoretical about what Max teaches attorneys at his workshops and seminars.  In fact, I’ve seen more than one lawyer put the things they’ve learned into practice even before they’ve returned home, calling new instructions into their offices during a break.



1. Next month, Max is coming to New York City…

“What You Need to Know About the UCC for Foreclosure Defense”

WHEN: November 19th & 20th
WHERE: New York Law School, New York City

Max, along with his faculty of expert guest speakers, will be delivering a specially designed in-depth session laser focused on the topic of the UCC’s impact on mortgage securitization… specifically tailored for New York state law.

Why is this topic so important?

You must attack the secured status of the Trustee of residential mortgage backed securitized trusts and you must challenge the mortgage servicer’s standing to foreclose.  In order to make these types of challenges in court, you must have a thorough understanding of how securitization is supposed to work and then determine whether the proper procedures were followed for your client’s mortgage.

To understand how securitization is supposed to work, you must have a thorough understanding of UCC Articles 3, 9 and 1-302. This session will present the most comprehensive look at the UCC and its impact on foreclosure defense.

In order for a residential mortgage to be properly securitized within a trust, the note needs to have been properly assigned by ALL parties to the transaction.  By now it should be clear to all involved that, in reality, this rarely occurred during the last decade.  Max refers to this as the “Alphabet Problem.”

The Role of the UCC

If you are going to attack the secured status of the Trustee of residential mortgage backed securitized trusts, you must be fluent in “UCC” or as Max might say in the “ABC’s”.

Various Articles of the Uniform Commercial Code cover aspects of how a residential mortgage note in a securitized transaction should be transferred.  Max is of the opinion that a residential mortgage note is NOT a negotiable instrument under Article 3 of the UCC and that Pooling and Servicing Agreements actually constitute “otherwise agreed” mandatory methods of perfection as permitted by Article 1-302 of the UCC.

According to one of Max’s recent articles…

“A review of all of the recent “standing” and “real party in interest” cases decided by the bankruptcy courts and the state courts in judicial foreclosure states all arise out of the inability of the mortgage servicer or the Trust to “prove up” an unbroken chain of “assignments and transfers” of the mortgage notes and the mortgages from the originators to the sponsors to the depositors to the trust and to the master document custodian for the trust.

As is likely stated in the PSA, however, the parties have represented and warranted that there is “a complete chain of endorsements from the originator to the last endorsee” for the note. And, the Master Document Custodian must file verified reports that it in fact holds such documents with all “intervening” documents that confirm true sales at each link in the chain.”

If you’re serious about winning the battle against foreclosure fraud for your clients don’t miss this opportunity to learn from the some of the top legal minds in the country how to drill down into the details of securitization and the impact of the UCC… specifically adapted to New York state law.

Attendees in New York will learn about such topics as…

  • Fannie & Freddie’s Securitization Model & Master Trust Agreements
  • The Ginnie Mae Securitization Model
  • Master Servicers, Primary Servicers, Back-Up Servicers, Default Servicers, Speciality Servicers and Sub-Servicers
  • The REMIC Tax Act of 1986 and REMIC Tax Opinions
  • Role of Pooling & Servicing Agreements & Section 1-302 of the UCC and PSA
  • New York and Delaware Trust Law
  • Custodians and the Custodial Guide & Agreements
  • The Mortgage Electronic Registration System – MERS as Original Mortgage , MERS as Assignee, the Agency Theory of MERS, MERS and Delaware Corporate Law

  • Section 2.01 of the PSA and Non-Negotiability
  • Article 9 of the UCC and Mortgage Notes
  • Mortgage Loan Sale Agreements, Mortgage Schedules as Defined by the PSA and the Mortgage Custodial File as Required by the PSA

And there’s much more on the agenda, so that’s only the beginning of what will make this event immediately invaluable to your practice.  Now, take a look at from whom you’ll be learning…

Judge Arthur Schack ““ New York Supreme Court Justice who has gained notoriety for taking the unusual stance “If you are going to take away someoneʼs house, everything should be legal and correct.”

3. Four and a half days of intensive, incomparable education for lawyers.

Max Gardner’s Bankruptcy Boot Camp

On Max’s Ranch in Shelby, North Carolina

There are very few events in life that simply should not be missed under any circumstances.  In my opinion, for attorneys representing homeowners at rick of foreclosure,  this is unquestionably such an event.  Max Gardner is nationally recognized as the country’s most successful consumer bankruptcy litigation and foreclosure attorney.  He’s tried 102 jury trials and only lost two… but one of those he re-tried… and won.  He’s very likely beaten more banks, mortgage servicers and general creditors than any lawyer in the nation.


Over 800 attorneys have made the pilgrimage back to Shelby, North Carolina to spend just shy of five very intense days at one of Max’s Bankruptcy Litigation, or Securitization Bootcamps, held on Max’s 160 acre ranch in the Western mountains of that beautiful state.  Classes at the ranch are held 12 hours a day, and when you’re not learning the latest legal strategies for beating the banks, you’re either eating (the food is spectacular), or sleeping (the accommodations are five star).


There’s no professional education program like it anywhere in the country, Max basically gives attorneys his thirty-year law practice in a box with easy assembly instructions and ongoing support.  And there’s nothing theoretical about what Max teaches, in fact, you’ll likely learn things that you’ll put to work during one of the breaks by calling your office and giving new instructions.
