[NY] How do I work out a deal with my mortgage lenders in order to keep my house?

My house was in foreclosure due to back mortgage payments. I was able to put off the auction by filing for bankruptcy. I want to work out a deal with my mortgage lenders in order to keep my house. What should I do? I was told I need both a bankruptcy lawyer and a real estate lawyer. I can barely afford one attorney, let alone two. P.S. I live in Brooklyn, New York. What would be a flat rate to hire an attorney to handle this for me?

[NY] How do I sue for failure to warn of health risks?

I’m 30, diagnosed with Ulcerative Colitis at 12. From 18–21 I volunteered as an EMT in Levittown, NY. Lived in NY, CT, and the last 18 years on Long Island. Are there active lawsuits involving UC that I might join? Also, some firms want me to sign up-front agreements (40% of recovery, “we already represent you”) before answering eligibility questions—is that standard?

[NY] How do I confirm that my record is sealed after an arrest?

I was arrested for domestic violence in New York City, but the charges were dropped without prejudice before I was arraigned. I was fingerprinted and photographed, but I never went to court and never received paperwork. I understand my case should be automatically sealed under CPL §160.50. How can I confirm that my record has been sealed properly, and what steps should I take if it hasn’t been?

[NY] Can I sue for wrongful termination?

I was a worker at a national retailer for at least 3 and a half years. Until a random person walked in while I was working on the floor. I was packing out merchandise, and he started grabbing things off the shelves. He verbally and physically tried to assault me. He swung a punch, and I had to defend myself and duck his punch. I punched back and hit him, then I had to fill out a report statement. In a few days, they called me and terminated me. I was actually injured in my left shoulder and have been living in pain ever since that day. I wanted to know if I have a case and where do I go from here. Thanks.
