Who We Are
At Foreclosure Defense Help, our mission is to help as many homeowners as possible beat the banksters and keep their home. We're located in Kulpsville, Pennsylvania.
Joe Portofino, a certified paralegal, has put together his small team to help homeowners. After working part-time for several years as a freelance paralegal, he earned his paralegal certification in 2009 from Blackstone Career Institute, Allentown, Pennsylvania.
Joe is a navy veteran, earned a B.A. in Marketing and an M.A. in Education, and taught secondary mathematics for a short time. Joe always loved reading, researching and writing. Finally, he decided to do it for a living, first as a professional copywriter and then as a paralegal.
Lastly, he is an avid bicyclist and participates every year (since 2003) in the MS 150 City-to-Shore Bike Tour to help raise money for Multiple Sclerosis.
Our paralegals are very good. How good?
THE COURT: I’ve read your pleadings. Pretty well done.
MR. PORTOFINO: Thank you.
THE COURT: I don’t know if you’ve had law school training or not. If you haven’t, you ought to think about maybe pursuing that as work. It is pretty good stuff for a layperson.
MR. PORTOFINO: Thank you.
