How to improve the short sale process? How to capture more short sale? What technology is currently being used and what is still needed?

Kicking the Boot camps gaining an edge in Default Servicing Defensive litigation
For years plaintiffs attorneys have conducted weekend-long seminars styled as Boot Camps, designed to provide tips and form pleadings to attorneys intent upon delaying the foreclosure process and seeking unwarranted monetary damages. This results in excess costs and delays to the servicers, which eventually has a negative impact on the industry as a whole. The servicing industry has been slow to react to this organized attack. This panel, consisting of attorneys from coast-to-coast, serves as a mini-boot camp for managers, in-house counsel and outside law firms to discuss the latest trends and strategies used successfully across the country.

The events and trends of the past few years have affected the various stages of the mortgage default process, particularly when dealing with a jurisdiction that follows a judicial foreclosure process.
