LIMITED REPRESENTATION AGREEMENT:
MORTGAGE FORECLOSURE DIVERSION PROGRAM
This Agreement for legal representation and services is between �p�� `►/r V1)U C_e
a volunteer with the Cumberland County Mortgage Foreclosure Diversion Program, hereafter called
the "Legal Representative," andp� ��s�J/Z`� , hereafter called the
"Client."
The Client authorizes the Legal Representative to represent the Client in the Cumberland
County Mortgage Foreclosure Diversion Program. The Client understands that this is a limited
representation agreement, and the Legal Representative is not obligated to provide continuing
representation to the Client after the initial Conciliation Conference and any rescheduled or
supplemental Conciliation Conferences. By signing this document, the Client understands and agrees to
the limited scope of this representation.
If the Client's case does not get resolved through the Conciliation process, the Legal
Representative and the Client may decide to continue the representation of the Client in the Mortgage
Foreclosure itself, but that representation would be by separate application and agreement and is not
included in this agreement. The Legal Representative will assist with the Foreclosure Diversion
Program but will not file legal documents in the case (other than any needed to continue with the
Diversion Program) and will not enter an appearance in the foreclosure case. The Client understands
that continuing representation in the Diversion Program is not guaranteed.
I HAVE THE FOLLOWING RIGHTS AS A CLIENT:
1. To be consulted before any significant decision (including a settlement proposal) is made on my
behalf, and to be given sufficient information to make an informed decision.
2. To have information regarding my case kept confidential. However, my Legal Representative may
discuss certain facts of my case with other parties, to the extent that it is necessary for effective
representation in this case.
AS A CLIENT I PROMISE TO DO THE FOLLOWING:
1. To consult with and cooperate with my Legal Representative, especially before communicating any
decisions to opposing counsel or the lender, during the conciliation process of this Program.
2. To provide the necessary financial and other information needed as part of the Diversion Program.
LEGAL REPRESENTATIVE'S OBLIGATIONS:
1. To represent the Client free of charge, accepting no attorneys' fees from the Client.
2. To give the Client zealous but limited representation in the above-described legal matter.
