About Attorney Margery Golant

Based in Broward County, Florida, Attorney Margery Golant is a compassionate consumer advocate who aggressively works to defend consumers who are being mistreated by some of the largest, most powerful, and best-funded corporations in the world. She is personally involved in every case and treats each one as if it were her own.

​Attorney Golant is one of a handful of attorneys in the U.S. who is truly knowledgeable about foreclosure law, foreclosure defense litigation and mortgage-related litigation in civil and bankruptcy court.

​Because of her work on behalf of Florida's borrowers and consumers, she was awarded the honor of Consumer Protection Attorney of the Year by the Consumer Protection Law Committee of the Florida Bar.

​She is a former judge, and her experience has provided her with a unique and valuable perspective in the view from the Bench.

​Attorney Golant has been widely quoted by national and local media concerning mortgage foreclosure and other consumer financial issues (Wall Street Journal, Washington Post, National Mortgage News, Sun-Sentinel, Palm Beach Post).

She has frequently been called upon to train other attorneys and law professors, having been a presenter at numerous foreclosure defense and consumer protection seminars by The Florida Bar.

She was invited to Washington, DC to testify before the U.S. Congress Judiciary Committee subcommittee regarding the foreclosure situation.

There are many attorneys currently holding themselves out as foreclosure defense attorneys. Attorney Golant stands head and shoulders above the crowd of foreclosure defense litigation attorneys, as she really understands the workings of the mortgage industry. As a result, she has saved many hundreds of homes and achieved soft landings for Florida borrowers.
