Excellent Service

I lost my primary income over 2 years ago and fell behind badly on my mortgage payments. I contacted the Acocella Law Group after I became concerned about the level of expertise that i was getting from another law firm that was handling my modification. When I spoke to Howard Leeds at the Acocella La...w Group he understood my fears and concerns about losing my home. From the outset he assured me that I was not going to loose my home. I was not getting this kind of positive thing from the other law firm. At any rate he told me what I needed to do, what documents to send and the fees involved that were in my opinion reasonable considering the alternative. I did my part, they did their part. There was constant follow-up throughout the process. In the end the process was completed and my home is saved. If you find yourself losing sleep because you are on the verge of losing your home, fear not. Contact the Acocella Law Group today and sleep easy tonight.

Loan Modification

Before I got in contact with Acocella Law group I was worrying everyday, about what I am going to do about getting my mortgage payment affordable because I was tricked by a bad real estate agent, that left me with a interest rate that was off the charts and a mortgage payment that was almost impossib...le for the average person to afford, after months of worrying and unsure of my future and not knowing if I will be having a place to live that I can afford. I started to look for help I met with a few law groups but after I met with Acocella Law group, I felt reassurance and confident that this Law firm was going to turn my mortgage and life around for the best, working with Acocella Law group was so easy and perfessional my worries started to go away automatically. I recommend if anyone have the same problem or anything similar to my problem they should contact Acocella Law ask for Lisa 516-394-5293 she is one of the best representative of any company I have ever work with, the team is so perfessional and so well educated , they make you feel like you already won, when you just start the fight and in the long run Acocella Law group will win for you. They won for me and won big for me, I say give Lisa a call 516-394-5293 and before you know it you have won your case and starting a new life with a new and very affordable mortgage and lots of happiness. Thanks again Acocella Law group.

Great results

I did not know where to turn when I was losing my home . I contacted Howard Leeds and he helped out a whole world of difference. He let me understand how he can save my home and what I had to do.[ We accomplish just that!] He walked me through step by step on how to get in good standing and refinanci...ng. Anyone who is behind on your mortgage payments are threatened whit foreclose should use ACOCELLA LAW GROUP,P.C. I greatly recommend. Not only save my home but my sanity also and got me a great interests rate. When I called they were very responsive and professional. Thanks greatly Jerry Blanchard

Thanks to a great company of lawyers

I was listening to a radio programme and I heard your ad about modification and I decided to try, so i called, made an appointment. From entering the office i was greeted and made to feel at ease. Met with Brian, who explained and answered everything so that we could understand, answered all of our q...uestions and some things we would go through with the bank and that he or others on staff will be available to answer and guide us each and every step of the way and it was a true statement. The staff that worked with me was fantastic, knowledgeable, patient and completely met my expectations. I would recommend any one seeking help with modification to contact your office. I would even dial the number for them. Thank you for the wonderful job your staff have done for me. My lawyer was excellent.

Loan Modification

I contacted the Acocella Law group about 5 months ago to see if they could help us with a home loan modicfication. I will admit that I was quite skeptical after dealing with other so called home modification lawyers. When I called I talked to Howard Leeds, who I believe was in there customer servi...ce department. I expressed my concerns about hiring another lawyer and he understood. Howard never pressured us to hurry up and sign up. As a matter of fact he gave me his personal cell phone number and told me to call any time which I did, several times. After a couple of weeks my wife and I decided to go ahead and sign up. We were 4 months behind on our mortgage, and getting foreclosure notices. Our interest rate was 8.25% and our payment with taxes and insurance was $3,025.00. Within two months and two weeks a representative from Acocella notified us that our mortgage company had accepted there offer for a modification and gave us a new payment of $1,231.00 with an interest rate of just over 2%. I tell you the truth I have never written a review for anything, but after this happened for us I needed to let other people out there with the weight of the world on there shoulders facing foreclosure that this company is NOT, I repeat NOT a scam. They helped save us $1,800.00 a month on our mortgage.
