Thank You ....God Bless Acocella Law Group

Words can not describe how grateful I am for the help Acocella Law provided for me in a time of need. Just a quick history of what happened. After a nasty divorce that pretty much bankrupted me I was left with a ton of bills and to top it off a predatory loan that kept getting higher. I was to the br...ink of losing my home because I couldn't afford the large payment anymore. One afternoon just looking online I observed the ad for mortgage help and stop forecloseure from Acocella Law. I was pretty much burnt out and came to the conclusion I would be in a motel for a few years until I got on my feet again. I contacted Acocella group and spoke to Dan Giannini. Dan was the person who took all my information and was very patient and caring. He made it very clear, he could not make any promises he couldn't keep but after a lengthy conversation he had my trust. Dan then handed over the case to Lisa Deluca. Lisa was very professional and assisted me from the start. At times Lisa was very demanding on the documents required. I take fault for that because in all honesty, they do ask for everything and during the review time I was working two jobs. Lisa was charming but very professional. She had a certain way to calm sometimes a frustrating process of collecting paperwork. The entire time that I dealt with Acocella it was for my best interest to get the documents required as soon as possible. Heather Martin was also a normal bi weekly call to make sure documents were sent. Heather was very nice and ALL business. She would tell me what I needed and that was that. Navita Sahadeo was another big help. Navita would listen to my frustration about the time it had taken for my modification and would have me smiling after getting off the phone with her. She had always had positive words and chuckled at my sometimes coy comments. After a lengthy process I finally received a call from Dave Van Nostrand who advised me that the modification had been approved and completed. I will be keeping my home after 25 years . Huge sigh of relief and normal sleep patterns again not worrying if I would lose my home. Acocella Law was the BEST !!!! I will tell all my friends and people I know going through the same life problems to call Acocella. I wrote this from my heart and this is actually a honest review. Thanks again Lisa Deluca you rock !!! and to the rest of the Acocella Law Group .... THANK YOU !!!!!

Kevin Ruckh Lawyer, and Jaime Rivera Paralegal.

They both were excellent they explained everything concerning my foreclosure case in great detail. Jaime effectively negotiated a good deal for me and my family allowing us to keep our home. I would highly recommend the firm to anyone who asks.

Mortgage Modification

We had been in a losing battle with Bank of America over attempting to obtain a mortgage modification. A sheriff sale had been pending for several months and even after having filed Chapter 13 was still declined. Malini worked tirelessly on our file and kept us informed frequently with any updates.... With God's favor, we received a modification after 5 years. We are so very grateful for the efforts made by Malini and Dan who were honest with us from the very beginning. Honestly, our case was TOUGH!! Thank you so very much for saving our home. I definitely recommend this firms services.

Mortgage modification

After spending close to a year trying to work out a mortgage modification with my loan servicer, I was ready to give up in frustration. I had to keep submitting documents, over and over again, only to be told that I had to start the process all over again due to the fact that the original application... was now considered to be "stale". I heard about The Acocella Law group from a radio commercial, and consulted with them in regards to getting help obtaining a mortgage modification. Although it took a little longer than I liked, the team was successful in helping me get a permanent modification. The team kept in touch with me during the whole process, and followed up on all payments to the loan servicer to make sure the modification would be approved.

Excellent attorneys for mortgage modification

After 3 unsuccessful attempts at getting a modification from our bank by ourselves, and almost giving up, we came to Frank Acocella and are delighted that we have just finalized! Frank and his team followed through with every detail and made it happen. Thank you Frank Sheila and Malini
