How this directory is built.

Last updated September 21, 2026

Verification

Profiles begin unclaimed and are labeled that way. When a firm claims its profile, the claimant can edit it right away. We receive the claim details by email and confirm that the person is authorized to act for the firm before anything the firm supplies is published, and the date of that check is recorded. Verification is a factual check — it cannot be bought, and paying for a profile level does not change it.

Profile levels and advertising

Two levels: Basic (free — firm name, location, courts) and Featured (the one labeled paid position at the top of a judicial district page, its county page and every town page in that district, shown first in quiz results).

• The Featured Position is a paid placement available only to firms that satisfy published eligibility and verification requirements — a Google rating of 4.0 stars or higher and at least two years in practice.
• Featured Positions are paid, always labeled and listed first. The order of every other firm depends on the page: on the Connecticut page, firms are listed A to Z; on every town page, firms with an office in the town appear first and nearby firms follow (a firm is in the town when any office listed on its own website or claimed profile is there; nearby firms have an office elsewhere in the same county and list the town's judicial district among the courts they handle), and within each group firms are alphabetical unless a paid Featured Position is displayed first and clearly labeled; on county pages, firms are ordered by Google rating, then review count. Payment never changes a firm’s rating or verification record. On the 13 judicial-district pages the order is different: firms the court record shows defending homeowners in that courthouse come first, ranked by the number defended in the year to September 2026, then firms that name the district on their own website, then firms with an office in a town the district hears.
• “Homeowner-side” means we found evidence that the firm represents homeowners in foreclosure matters. A firm is listed when its own website or claimed profile says it represents homeowners in foreclosure cases, in foreclosure mediation or loss mitigation, or in bankruptcy used to stop or address a foreclosure. It does not necessarily mean the firm never represents lenders in other matters unless expressly stated. “Homeowner & lender work” means the firm’s own materials show it also takes lender-side work.
• “Nearby” on a town page means the firm has an office in another town in the same county and lists, on its own website or claimed profile, the judicial district that hears that town’s cases.
• Service badges on cards (mediation, loan modification, Chapter 7, Chapter 13) appear only when the firm’s own website or its claimed profile states the service. Languages, virtual meetings and short-notice or same-week consultations come from claimed profiles or the firm’s own site; availability changes, so confirm it with the firm.
• A profile the firm has claimed and confirmed reads “Confirmed by the firm”; every other profile is built from public sources and says so.
• Each of Connecticut’s 13 judicial districts carries one Featured Position. If a district’s position is taken, other firms can join a waitlist for it.
• The quiz produces results only: it filters the directory and shows best-fit firms, Featured first and clearly labeled. You choose who to contact. A consultation request goes only to the firms you select, and only when you ask us to. A question sent through Send a Question to Attorneys goes to the Foreclosure Attorney Hub team first. We may forward it to a Connecticut attorney in the directory whose practice covers the property's judicial district. We do not recommend a firm, receive no part of any legal fee, and give no legal advice.

What we sell

One thing: labeled advertising. A Featured Position is a paid placement on pages homeowners are already reading, and it is marked as paid wherever it appears. Nothing else about a profile can be bought, and no payment changes a firm’s rating, its verification record or the order of the free listings.

We do not sell leads or take a share of legal fees. When a homeowner chooses to contact a firm through Foreclosure Attorney Hub, we may transmit that homeowner’s message to the selected firm using the firm’s published or verified contact information. We do not send a homeowner’s contact information to firms they did not select unless the homeowner separately chooses the Send a Question to Attorneys service and consents to that process. Narrow my options forwards a request only to the firms that homeowner picked, the homeowner sees that list before anything is sent, and no firm is shown the request of a homeowner who did not select it.

If that ever changes, it will be written on this page before it takes effect.

Sources and rechecks

Town pages keep this explanation here rather than repeating it on every page. Each firm fact is stored with the page it came from and the date it was checked, and a label appears only when both are on file.

• Firm websites. Whether a firm represents homeowners, and the services it lists (court foreclosure mediation, loan modification, Chapter 7, Chapter 13), its languages, virtual consultations and short-notice availability come from the firm’s own website, or from its claimed profile once the firm has claimed it.
• Office locations. An office counts when the firm’s website gives a street address, or lists the location with its own phone number. A firm is shown as having an office in a town when one of those offices is there.
• Google ratings and review counts come from Google and are labeled as Google reviews. We do not collect, edit or publish reviews ourselves.
• Courts. Judicial districts follow Connecticut General Statutes § 51-344. Where a foreclosure may be filed follows § 51-345 and the Judicial Branch’s town-by-town venue table for land matters.

Rechecks. Checked facts expire: short-notice availability after 30 days, virtual consultations after 90 days, and offices, services and languages after 180 days. An expired fact stops appearing until it has been checked again. Court details are rechecked at least every 90 days and whenever the Judicial Branch publishes a change; the volunteer-attorney schedule is rechecked when a new schedule is published.

Court information

Courthouse names, addresses, phone numbers, and hours are verified against the official judicial-branch source for each state — in Connecticut, the Judicial Branch’s own directions pages and its official town-by-town venue table for land matters, which govern where a foreclosure is heard. Each court entry links to the official page it was checked against.

Timeline data

Foreclosure timeline figures are drawn from the ATTOM U.S. Foreclosure Market Report and cited wherever they appear. They are averages, published for informational purposes only — they are not an indication of how long any individual foreclosure will take. Many factors change the timing of an individual foreclosure.

Corrections

If anything on a profile, town or county page is wrong, use the contact form and say what should change. Please do not include confidential case information. We check the report against the source, and when the source confirms it, the page is corrected. Firms can correct their own information at any time by claiming the profile — claiming is free.
