Ice Legal Takes on Pro Bono Trials in Manatee

Ice Legal attorneys, along with members of a local legal defense group changed the course of events for pro se homeowners in Manatee.  With the assitance of Gulfcoast Legal Services, Ice Legal led the way in volunteering legal services for homeowners who appeared for foreclosure trials without representation by an attorney.

“It is difficult to jump into a case on the day of trial,” said Tom Ice, the firm’s founder.  “But, the banks are not expecting an attorney on the other side, so they are often unprepared for any real resistance.”

The attorneys worked all day long in the Manatee County courtroom staving off judgments in cases where the banks had not brought the evidence necessary to show they were entitled to foreclose or how much was owed.
