RASMUSSEN LAW FIRM is a California Professional Law Corporation focusing on:

The Rasmussen Law Firm (a DBA for the Law Offices of Stephen E. Rasmussen, PC) is quickly becoming one of the most successful and effective short sale and debt negotiation firms in California. The Rasmussen Law Firm has successfully negotiated over 150 short sales since the housing crisis began and has settled well over $100 million in secured debt.

Our goal in representing clients is to ensure the short sale terms negotiated with the lender achieve a better result for the client than foreclosure in consideration of California's anti-deficiency laws as well as cancellation of debt tax implications (IRS Form 1099-C). Our legal fees for short sale negotiation services are paid by the short sale lender or buyer and not the client. The Rasmussen Law Firm also negotiates settlements of consumer and business debt on a contingency basis in most cases. Our primary focus is high net-worth clients that are over leveraged with both real estate, consumer, and business debt. If you are under financial distress and need a free legal consultation regarding your options (e.g., bankruptcy, loan modification, short sale, or debt settlement).
