Serving our community is at the heart of who we are at HOF Law Group, and we are proud to share an early milestone in this year’s holiday giving efforts.

In just two weeks, our team collected and donated 100 pounds of food to Manna on Main Street, helping support families who rely on their services throughout the season. Thank you to everyone who contributed so far.

Our goal for the Christmas season is to double, if not triple, that amount and donate 200 to 300 pounds of food to help local families facing food insecurity.

If you would like to support the effort, we are continuing to accept donations at our PA office: 298 Wissahickon Avenue | North Wales, PA 19454. Every item makes a meaningful difference.

📣 The Minds Moving the Industry Forward | Featuring Jonathan Roman, Esq.

When the rules shift, so must the strategy.

As Managing Attorney of HOF’s New York office, Jonathan Roman helps lenders and servicers navigate one of the most complex regulatory landscapes in the country.

In this spotlight, Jonathan shares key insights on the state of foreclosure and litigation in NY — and what servicers should be watching now:

🔹 FAPA (Foreclosure Abuse Prevention Act):
Statutes of limitation are being enforced with precision.
“Dismissals for timing missteps that wouldn’t have been fatal pre-FAPA are now happening. Careful tracking is essential.”

🔹 RPAPL 1304 Compliance:
Not just what’s in the 90-day notice — but how it’s mailed.
“Technical precision is key. Even minor deviations can derail a foreclosure.”

🔹 Good Cause Eviction Law:
REO possession strategies may need to adjust.
“It’s another factor that will shape how servicers manage post-sale occupancy.”

Jonathan also brings experience in replevin, bankruptcy, and transactional matters, offering clients full-asset-cycle support — from default to sale.

📈 Foreclosure starts rose 16.1% year-over-year.
And in April alone, they edged up another 0.8%.

States like Texas, Florida, Illinois, and Ohio are seeing the sharpest increases—while Houston, Chicago, and New York lead in metro activity.

These trends point to one thing:
Legal operations are under renewed pressure.

Financial institutions and servicers are facing:
- Growing backlogs across high-volume jurisdictions
- Increased scrutiny from regulators
- Heightened risk exposure without fast, state-specific ex*****on

At HOF Law Group, we help our clients stay ahead by:
✔️ Rapidly identifying jurisdictional timelines
✔️ Implementing escalation protocols to prevent missed milestones
✔️ Ensuring litigation-readiness across every file

In an environment like this, preparedness isn’t a bonus—it’s a baseline.

📞 Concerned about compliance exposure in high-volume states? Call (215) 855-9521 to schedule a litigation readiness review.
Let’s assess your current workflows before the backlog hits.

HOF Spotlight: Celebrating Charles Roman 🌟

Introducing Charles Roman, our NY Paralegal, featured in this month’s HOF Spotlight. Born and raised in Putnam County, NY, Charles’s journey is as engaging as it is inspiring.

- He attended Kennedy Catholic High School before moving to Georgia to complete high school at West Forsyth.

- Charles began his career working at a restaurant while attending Westchester Community College, later joining his brother’s practice—a step that has since led to his valuable role at HOF Law Group.

- Now residing in Hawthorne, NY with his girlfriend Erica and their cats, Charles balances a busy professional life with a passion for the outdoors, especially camping—and he never misses an opportunity to add a new piece of camping gear to his collection.

A fun fact: Charles spent two years in culinary school and keeps a Derek Jeter collectible bobblehead on his workspace; and if he could be any animal for a day, he’d choose a Peregrine Falcon, admired for its incredible speed.
Charles, thank you for your vibrant energy and dedication. You truly enhance our team.

Join us in celebrating Charles by leaving a congratulatory note or share a favorite memory in the comments! 👏
