Though most think the foreclosure crisis and predatory lending scandal have blown over, many people in communities that were specifically targeted — such as Mattapan — are still fighting daily to keep or get back their homes. The Legal Services Center of Harvard Law School is joining this fight and last week launched a new anti-foreclosure and eviction-defense program called the Mattapan Initiative. Through this initiative, the Center will provide free legal services to homeowners and renters in Mattapan. “People in largely minority communities were really sold bad mortgages,” says Attorney Roger Bertling, who oversees the Mattapan Initiative and is director of the Consumer Protection/Predatory Lending Clinic at the Legal Services Center.
