What a awesome team I had..

I would recommend this law office to anyone that has to go through a loan modification..I had been dealing with my lender for two agonizingly years, getting absolutely nowhere on my own. Faxing documents over and over again in fact I faxed my divorce decree 17 times just continuing the cat and mouse ...game with people who didn't care. A friend of mine gave me Eden Grants number and it was nice to know their was someone on my side. I would like to personally thank the whole team that worked this mod for me.. Eden ..girl I feel like we are family all of the countless times I've called crying and you never got off that phone until you had made me feel more comfortable with the situation and you always gave hope even when it felt like all hope was lost.. Thank you for being so good at your job.. Lisa deluca and Tanya thank you for staying on top of them Making sure they were getting things done to your liking and mine and helping me understand all of documents and final modification.. Steve cera..thank you for speaking to my ex husband as a courtesy for me, without you I wouldn't have gotten papers signed guaranteed! You all are an exceptional team working together to keep people in their homes. I thank you, my daughter thanks you, my business thanks you and my 4 beautiful horses in the barn thank you.. I know if it wasn't for you all working so hard on my case we would not be where we are at today and I appreciate everyone of you. Jayne

Review of there services

The Acocella Law firm has handle my case in a timely professional matter. Starting from Mr. Cail to Mrs. Watkins, they have been nothing but helpful and informative in my situation. There law firm makes sure that your informed and understand what you are getting into and what they can try to do for y...ou. They worked really hard for their customer and getting a positive outcome to resolve your problem. It took time but I finally received the news that I've been waiting for. I would recommend this law firm to others that might need their help.

I Can't Thank You All Enough!!

I came to AVVO several months ago seeking an attorney to work with for help on a Mortgage Loan Modification. With all the choices out there, I painstakingly analyzed and researched many firms. The Acocella Law Group seemed like the one that could get the job done, so I took the step forward and put... my trust in them. I am so glad I did! My case was extremely complex, with many back tax issues, debts, judgements, divorce, etc. My case was first taken in by Ms. Eden Grant, who took the time to understand all my issues. After carefully analyzing my situation, she explained to me that I would qualify for a modification, and then gave me a monthly mortgage target number that they were going to shoot for with my lender. I knew it was not going to be easy, but I was so hopeful. I felt like I had the best team on my side. My case was then turned over to Ms. Malini Seepersaud, who handled every aspect of working directly with my lender. She was in contact with my lender several times per week, and made sure they had everything they needed to continue their due diligence. She knew when they made duplicate requests, and straightened everything out. Also, Malini would contact me with updates on a regular basis, keeping me informed as to what was going on. She was like my lifeline during this time. I am so grateful to her for her expertise, her patience, her persistence, and her deft navigation of this very involved process. The entire case took longer than usual to conclude, again because of my complicated situation, but I jumped for joy when I finally got the call that my Loan Modification was approved. Needless to say, I love this law firm and I am so grateful to each and every one of the staff for helping me get an approval from my lender which will save over $800 per month and, most of all, save my beloved home. Thank you all from the bottom of my heart! A note to those seeking an attorney for Loan Modification: if you are on the fence about which firm to hire to handle your Loan Modification, call these folks now! This process needs a truly professional team, and that's what you will get here. I wholeheartedly recommend The Acocella Law Group.

No Satisfaction

I hired the Acocella Law Group to represent me in a loan modification to prevent a foreclosure with Chase bank. I was assured at that time by one of their Relationship Managers that I had nothing to worry about and they would make sure that a loan modification would be granted. After nine months and ...some $4,500 plus in payments to Acocella I did get my modification but unfortunately it was at a higher monthly payment. That was four months ago. Needless to say I was not pleased and was told that the Acocella Law Group did get me a modification and since we did I would have to re-apply and owe another $4,500. For the past four months they have promised to address my issues but every telephone contact with a representative that was scheduled they broke. I strongly feel that there should be some settlement to help me retrieve back most of my costs. I would not recommend them to anyone applying for a loan modification.

Best Foreclosure Prevention Lawyer In New York

Frank Acocella was referred to me by a very prominent real estate broker mutual friend. I was having problems with my mortgage company and Frank was on it right away for a reasonable fee. Instead of having to deal with the bank myself, Frank managed to get my payments lowered and made the problem go ...away. No more threatening letters, weird people snooping around my home, rude telephone bankers. Frank is very hard working, honest, experienced and trustworthy - all the qualities one should look for when hiring an attorney. Highly recommended.
