Even as banks receive failing marks for loan modifications, United Law Group’s lead attorney Robert Buscho traveled during the holidays to make a difference to troubled homeowners.
Irvine, CA (Vocus/PRWEB ) January 19, 2010 -- For many troubled homeowners, the holiday season didn’t provide a much-hoped-for reprieve from foreclosure proceedings. In fact, to some it seemed that bankers were working overtime. Fortunately, many of those homeowners were not alone. Showing his commitment to supporting families in need, United Law Group Managing Director Robert Buscho put his personal plans aside and traveled to several towns to personally fight to keep people from being locked out in the cold.
In one case, Buscho boarded a train on December 30, 2009 to appear in the U.S. District Court, Eastern District of California, Fresno Division on December 31, 2009 on behalf of the a family in response to the Court's Order to Show Cause. Buscho was able to persuade the Court to not only keep the action alive, but also to order the defendant Bank of America to confer with United Law Group to see if the dispute could be resolved by court-supported mediation. At this date, United Law Group attorneys are preparing a proposed loan modification agreement which will, if approved, resolve the action and restore ownership to the family.
In another such case, a family with an infant child was locked out by Wachovia Bank for over two hours prior to the hearing. Rather than opting to submit a brief to the court via fax, Buscho boarded yet another train and appeared in the Stanislaus County Superior Court in Modesto on behalf of the family. The firm continues to work toward a resolution to this family’s distress.
“Without legal support, families are left to fight for rights they often don’t know they have against bankers with deep pockets and a slew of high-powered attorneys,” said Buscho. “It’s wrong for the banks to bully homeowners into eviction. At United Law Group we are focused on supporting homeowners through this process. If that means traveling six hours by train to tell a judge they can’t let the banks get away with this, then that’s what we do.”
The Orange County Register published a story on December 11, 2009 titled ‘Mortgage Relief Reaches Few Homeowners.’ The story states that Bank of America completed 98 modifications for 160,000 who signed up for the program. Just over 31,000 received permanent loan modifications under the Obama administration’s mortgage relief plan, a program that set a target of helping 3,000,000 to 4,000,000 people.
“Bank of America modified loans for .061% of the people that submitted requests,” said Buscho. “Lenders as a whole have helped slightly over 1% of the target set for them by the government. People need help and the banks are sending a clear message that they aren’t going to give it, even when asked to by the government of the United States.”
In addition to loan renegotiation services, United Law Group also represents consumers in cases involving debt settlement, IRS settlement, auto loan payment relief, breaches of contract and violations of state and federal laws. They have several class action lawsuits pending against major lenders.
