I spoke with a B***** M****** who assured me that I could lock in a 3.25% interest rate along with a substantially reduced payment. I made $2,500 in payments to Roosevelt Law firm who was supposed to furnish Chase Bank with information and documentation on my behalf. I cancelled final payment ($1,000) when I discovered I was not eligible for the interest rate quoted "off the record." I spoke with N**** E******* at Roosevelt and she was dismayed to learn what i had told her and promised a refund of my $2,500 less any billable hours they needed to charge. i received nothing and my subsequent voice messages for N**** E******* have gone unreturned.

    HPA AND ROOSELVELT LAW CENTER PC ARE SCAMMERS!!! I spoke Shawn Piere at HPA and he assured me that ROOSEVELT LAW Center PC could get me a lower interest rate and help save my home. He connected me with Lisa Taylor @ (949) 313-0458 she never answers her phone and didn't return my calls until after I would call Shawn from "HPA". I paid them $4,500 in 3 monthly installment payments. I received a call from Mr. Waters stating that I had been excepted into the program and the reason it took so long is because of the lender and they "ROOSELVELT LAW CENTER PC" needed 2 more payments from me to finalize everything. I made the 1st of 2 monthly payments on February 3, 2016 and on
    February 8,2016 I received a call from Lisa Taylor stating that the lender denied my modification and ROOSEVELT LAW CENTER PC would appeal the lenders decision. I asked Lisa Taylor why did Mr. Waters call and say I had been expected into the program and request 2 more payments Lisa Taylor had no knowledge of a Mr. Waters calling me for more payments. Well on February 12,2016 Lisa Taylor called me and said the lenders refusing to review anything else and I should think about filing for bankruptcy to protect my home. I asked Lisa Taylor about a refund for the $1,250 payment I had made on February 3,2016. Lisasaid she wouldn't get back to me and she didn't. I kept calling Lisa Taylor and Shawn Piere and they wouldn't return my calls. Shawn Piere told me in the beginning he was my liaison person. But once I told him they denied my modification he stop answering and returning my calls. I even tried emailing Shawn he forwarded my email to Craig Goodwin from ROOSEVELT LAW CENTER PC who then contacted me via email claiming they had been trying to reach me and had left 9 voicemails and I hadn't returned their calls ALL LIES. I pulled my cellphone records and didn't have any calls from ROOSEVELT LAW CENTER PC. The only calls were the 30 plus calls I had made to ROOSEVELT LAW CENTER PC. I filed a complaint with BBB and Craig Goodwin responded with a lie stating that I closed my case with them before they file an appeal and that he's tried to reach me several times which is another one of Craig Goodwin from ROOSEVELT LAW CENTER PC LIES... I didn't except Craig Goodwins response to my complaint. I responded to Craig Goidwins response and BBB forwarded over to ROOSEVELT LAW CENTER PC CRAIG GOODWIN. Mr. Craig Goodwin never responded back to BBB the second time instead he sent an email on June 23,2016 and asked what's a good time to speak with you, I responded right back and told him anytime. On June 27,2016 Mr. Goodwin still hasn't called me, I then sent Mr. Goodwin another email and left a voicemail on July 7, 2016 and didn't get a response back . My complaint with BBB was closed as unresolved because Mr. Craig Goodwin never responded back to my second response via BBB. DONT GIVE ROOSEVELT LAW CENTER PC YOUR MONEY THEY ARE A SCAM

      Nicole, as you remember, your mortgage company refused to modify your loan because (this part you did not disclose to us when we took your case) you had been given 3 past modifications.
      It took me and my compliance department tens of calls to reach you, and at the end you were refunded the payment you paid us because with 3 past modifications your mortgage company AND the federal government modification programs REFUSED to help you for a 4th time.
      The rest of the case details i will not disclose because i respect your privacy.
      Shame that in your above statement you had to exaggerate all the details and omit so many important details that would explain why we could not help you, along with the fact that you got your money back in time.
      Thank you never the less.

      By the grace of GOD, our law firm has protected thousands of homeowners, and since August of 2016 when the above post was written, we have protected another 500+ homeowners. This is an obvious fake complaint, from an employee of one of the many mortgage companies we go after to protect our homeowners, or a past employee that we terminated due to work ethic or compliance.

    Roosevelt Law Firm is a scam! We paid $6000 and lost our home. WE had to live in a hotel for 2 weeks - with kids before we found a place to rent. THE whole time we were promised to receive some of our money back. We lost our home in April 2016,  when we didn't receive our refund by October - and they stopped answering our calls, we filed a complaint with BBB. The case was closed unresolved. How these people can take advantage  after the homeowner's lose their home - I don't know how they can sleep at night

    So glad I found this feed. I got suspicious when I asked for a letter with there letter head and information for my attorney to have. I quickly got a call they sent me a 17 page application and I kept asking what the 720$ was for , I kept sayin it's going to the house right??? They said will that a back that will go to the house once you start making payments to use? I said I'm still making payments to my Bank they told me not to make any more payments to my bank and send it to them. I asked them why, that didn't make any sense to me. They told me some crazy story then I asked are you charging me for your serives???? that's when he said yes but that I didn't have to pay up front. I tols him he didn't make any sense telling me not to pay my bank and to pay them i told them that Ihave a chioce and it's topay my bank and not them. I told him NO THANKS!!!

      Rose,
      I do not have any record of a retainer or case docs being approved to be sent to a "rose" at the start of 2017.
      My department (compliance) has to review, audit and accept each case that we decide to work on.

      Our client retainer agreement has a specific page, that states word for word "You the homeowner confirm that Our law firm and all representatives of our firm has NEVER instructed you to NOT make payments".

      Our law firm retainer also has another page that states in BOLD font "you do not require third party assistance, and can contact your mortgage company for help".

      Our law firm retainer also has another page that states in BOLD "our law firm does NOT accept any up front fees, once work is performed on certain milestones that and ONLY than can we accept payments to our law firm, and at this point you are paying the law firm for services rendered, NOT your lender"

      I hope this clears up your confusion. Either way, if you still need assistance or have questions, you can contact me below.

    SKEPTICAL
    | 1 reply
    Im currently in process of reviewing 17 pages sent to me by hpahelp for Roosevelt Law Center which I was feeling great about until I was already asked to send in a 600$ payment which would be 1 of 4 I need to send in. I adviced that I needed to review the forms before I send in the money an that's when the friendly polite personality turned frustrated an became alert an concerned. So I took to Google an stumbled upon this. It's sad when people or looking for genuine help an or going through a rough patch in life that people would be only concerned in makiing them suffer more while they benefit. I really see i may need to seek additional assistance .

    I am so thankful I found these testimonies. I was almost baited in by there sophisticated ways starting with "Making Homes Obtainable." The one sentence"call anytime was my first red flag." Second was how quickly they had -----on the line from HPAHELP. Thank you once again and my HUD helper who looked them up and said they sounded like they were scammers and did not have .gov after there web site. THANKS!!!

    I'm not sure which company some of these people in these comments are talking about I worked with Roosevelt Law Center and Anthony Ferrari and they did a wonderful job for me their terms were set to what I could afford according to my income so I'm not really sure what they did for anyone else or if it was even this company but I know they did a wonderful job for me and I'm forever grateful

    My husband and I are working with Home protection advocacy. We are at a standstill. I've read all the comments. I spoke to a gentleman and he said we would have to pay 650.00 for four months. He said this money would go to the Roosevelt law firm. They said they would contact our lender on our behalf. We don't know if we should follow through. Please help.

      Sharon, if you still need help you are welcome to read my responses to every issue above as well as Mirtha's below, and also review our 99% positive review rating on actual accredited websites like google and BBB. No disrespect to this forum, however it takes 1 minute for a disgruntled employee of the mortgage companies or past employee of ours to try to hurt our great reputation.
