        Makes All The Difference

        Christopher M. Hill and Associates, LLC, is a “high touch, high tech, low risk” mortgage default law firm with decades of experience in the field.  While the firm utilizes state of the art technology and systems, it believes that extensive attorney involvement is critical to successful resolution of the matters assigned to it.  Firm attorneys personally attend all but the most routine hearings, based upon the belief that local courts want to hear from the attorney having direct responsibility for the case rather than local appearance counsel who may or may not have the background to answer the court’s questions.   This personal delivery of services and extensive attorney involvement distinguishes the firm from most of its larger competitors. The firm has made a massive investment in state of the art technology.  By leveraging this technology,  the  firm  is  able  to  deliver  the  same  time  lines  and  fees  as  its  much  larger competitors, while offering a uniquely high level of attorney involvement to its clients.


        The firm utilizes all of the major mortgage default systems, such as: Black Knight/Loansphere, Tempo and Serengeti; moreover, with its small firm management structure and state of the art case management system in CaseAware, the firm is able to very quickly adapt to client directions and custom-fit its services to a particular client’s demands.  The firm takes pride in its big-time capabilities to cover all counties and bankruptcy court divisions in Ohio and Kentucky as well as all bankruptcy divisions in Indiana.


        Unlike many huge creditors’ rights law firms, we are small enough to be extremely flexible and responsive. If a client has special requirements, we don’t have to go through a committee meeting to decide if it can be done. If you ask for it, we will accomplish it.


        Every  equipment  purchase,  technology  investment,  employee  hire,  management  structural change and strategic decision since the formation of the firm, has been made with the goal of being a state of the art creditors rights and mortgage default firm.  We would be pleased to provide any additional information.

        Mechanic and Tow Statute lienholders

        In the course of representing Commonwealth Credit Union, we have successfully defended the Credit Union’s rights to its collateral against storage lots and mechanic’s lienholders. These statutes grant particular rights to Mechanics and Tow persons; however, their recovery of fees and costs is significantly limited if they fail to follow notification guidelines in the statute. 

        RTO Rentals, LLC v. Randi Smith, 17-CI-00073
        Lessee of RTO Rentals, LLC had storage shed detained and sold by landlord to a third party. Our firm defended the rights of the Lessor, RTO Rentals, LLC and established that the lease is subject to Article 2A and an individual in possession of the storage shed takes subject to the lease. The Court further held in favor of RTO Rentals, LLC that there is no safe harbor from this provision applicable to a purchaser is a bona fide purchaser for value without notice.

        In Re: Estate of Carolyn M. Morissey, 2016-CA-001929
        The Court of Appeals denied discretionary review from the Franklin Circuit Court’s decision that Commonwealth Credit Union’s rights as a lienholder under KRS 286.6-395 permitted its right to immediate setoff upon an event of default. Under the contract signed by the decedent, death was an event of default. As a result, the Credit Union applied funds in the account to the sums it was owed on various contracts prior to the offset to the surviving spouse. This was proper pursuant to the relevant statues.
