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.

Frank was very responsive and with us every step of the way! Went above and beyond.

Frank Acocella and his team were a pleasure to work with. Frank helped with our real estate purchase. He was always there and took the time to go over every little detail to make sure we were comfortable with the entire process. He made sure to review all documents on his own and went over again w...ith us pointing out things we should be aware of. Frank always responded to our calls and emails within minutes and was very proactive. He treats you like family and even after the closing his responsiveness and willingness to provide assistance and advice when needed did not change. Thanks Frank!

Short Sale Expert! Professional & Personable - A Great Combination!

As a widow, facing the prospect of selling a home is terrifying enough, but having to sell it as a short sale, multiplied the anxiety 10-fold. Within minutes of entering Mr. Acocella's office, I knew I was in excellent hands. His respectful, patient, and reassuring manner combined with his knowledge... and experience in short sales was the perfect combination of skills. Mr. Acoccella handled all the legal paper work, conversations with the realtors and banks, kept me informed throughout, and presided over a closing that met the needs of all participants. His work and efforts on my behalf during this process exceeded all of my expectations. I would recommend Mr. Acoccella without hesitation for your real estate and short sale needs.
