Paul Steven Di Furia

I’d called the state’s mediation counseling/referral line December 23, 2016 and the woman I spoke with said I’d probably miss my 30-day option for mediation due to the timing of the holidays. That godsend of a woman then called in a personal favor and contacted “the best foreclosure attorney in the b...usiness” because she said if anyone could stop the foreclosure at that point, it was him. Paul called me from the East Coast where he was celebrating Christmas with his family. He got my information and told me he’d enter me in the mediation program to stop foreclosure even if I didn’t end up hiring him to represent me, but of course I did. Paul’s fee was extremely reasonable, and he accepted it in monthly payments. After 4 years and 2 prior failed mediation’s, my case was a mess that took a lot more time, effort, and negotiation than all of his other clients, but he never complained or asked for more money. He even convinced my ex to sign and notarize documents he’d sworn he’d never sign off on! Paul worked ahead of deadlines, responded immediately, and walked me through every step with patience, humor, and a positive attitude. Both the lender and mediator had extensive prior experience working with Paul and at our first meeting, both commented on his reputation as a tireless professional they enjoyed working with. Their attorney told me I ‘couldn’t have chosen better’. The end result was Paul pulled off a miracle by not only saving our house, he also negotiated with the lender to get my monthly payment $400 lower than what I was paying before the divorce.

Paul has been amazing, we started my mortgage mediation over a year ago and still on it. He and his staff are always easy to reach, and have put up with my stubbornness to not go down with out a fight. He has been supportive and eager to go head to head with my mortgage company and has yet amazed m...e with knowledge and way he has handled my case. i am sure he will get me the best result in the end.

After 6 months of getting no where with our bank I finally decided to hire an Attorney. Paul was referred to us by our business Attorney so I felt comfortable he was not going to take our money and run. The process took 18 months due to the bank postponements. We were ready, they were not on numerous... occasions. We paid Paul one flat fee and he never asked for a dime more over the course of the 18 months. We finally went to mediation after Paul forced them to go to because yet again they were not ready. Once we got to the mediation he explained that he wanted to see how the mediation went and if it was not favorable he was going to take action in other manners. Fortunately, the process went in our favor and we were able to retain our home. I have never cried tears of joy but I did that day. Paul was always responsive when we had questions and took the time to explain the answers in depth. He either answered his phone directly or called back within a short period of time. I would absolutely recommend using him.

Attorney Paul Di Furia was contacted when I was down to about two weeks from the foreclosure sale of my primary residence in Seattle. Before this contact, six months of modification directly with Chase Bank had been denied with no explanation. I had then attended a mortgage foreclosure seminar pres...ented by an attorney with Advantage Legal Group of Bellevue and had paid for representation. After about two weeks and no further communication from them, Mr. Di Furia was contacted in a panic. Confidence in Mr. Di Furia was immediate through a direct and sufficient discussion of my foreclosure situation which he acknowledged was complex but easily fit the requirements of the state mediation law. Because of the urgency of the situation, he immediately filed the necessary notice and papers with the Dispute Resolution Center and with the attorneys for the Bank. With his competent assistant, document preparation was almost painless. Mr. Di Furia always kept me in the loop and made me feel like I was his top priority. His representation at the mediation sessions was excellent and he always took the time to explain the process and answer questions about future sessions. The end result of the year and a half mediation was that I received and accepted a modification that was better than I dared hope for. My confidence in Mr. Di Furia's representation throughout this mediation process never waivered and I would whole heartedly recommend his services to any potential client.
