"Kids pick up on everything," notes Pisgah Legal Services' client Lindsey. "My daughter came to me asking, 'Mommy, where will we go when they take our house?' She was six and she was worrying about these things." Lindsey and her husband, struggling business owners hit hard by the recession, found themselves facing foreclosure. PLS attorney Bill Whalen stopped the foreclosure and secured a loan modification to reduce their interest and make their payments more affordable, so they could stay in their home with their two children.
