About judicial real estate sales

Mr. Oldfield has a long time experience and learned a lot how to justify the last penny taken from you. My case was quite simple for an experience attorney and still cost me more then I expected. He used most of the documents collected by me and he made 1.5 pages report with conclusions. He did no...t look or could figuring out that the bank who appear to hold the Deed has sold the mortgage to the other company. I expected if I pay an attorney more then average price to get more and suggest professional avenues to pursue my case and making sure don’t loose my investment. He asked me to direct him what will be the next step if any and I decided let him stop working. Don’t expect to answer you an email or give you a call, he is not very communicative without charge.

Great Lawyer

Tom helped us research the issue, provided a recommendation with justification and facts, and setttle our dispute. His knowledge and research resulted in a settlement that otherwise would have in the long run cost us more time, money and heartache.
