Not only have we never missed a mortgage payment but we have an almost perfect credit score to prove it. We both work and have never collected a dime in unemployement. We are not blaming 1ALC for losing our home (we still have it) but rather for their inability to follow through on the promise to help us with the complex modification system. I understand your irritation of folks who are trying to get out of paying their fair share. However in my case and that of many many others, we are simply trying to modify the existing mortgage because the orginal set up we were given is no longer even legal! Due to home prices falling so sharply in our area we do not qualify for a normal refinance, hence our interest in a modification. Please do not be so quick to judge when you have very little information to go on. ~A Mr. Too Tall,

Instead you pay "$3,500" to a 3rd party "Loan Modification" company and blame them for losing your home. Really!!!? I am certain you were delinquent many months prior to contacting a loan modification company or a law firm in hopes of them saving your home. Its simple math, if you don’t pay, you can’t stay. This is a 2 way street. Now you on the other hand are mad because you lost your home. GET A JOB and stop collecting unemployment.

I worked for J.D and Kurt I was told all the same things, but the kept dragged me around telling me they wanted me as there partner. When i started to quit because i lost my apartment I still have two maxed out unpaid credit cards from trying to live and feed myself. I lost my cell phone everything I had was sucked and gone within two months!! The most I ever got from them was a few meals, and 200$ when I left after all the trips I did. Staying up all night making my goals in bad areas. Total scam and the fact that this creeps left girls go out and do this is ridiculous. I had to stay in a bad motel that had cameras in the room I found them and the motel guy got mad when he noticed i had found them. I called Kurt and J.D saying I need to call the cops but they told me not to, because i needed to stay on track and sell bottles and just to get out of there.I hate them everything was going alright in my life until I found them, i was promised so highly I didn't want to believe the truth when my mom kept telling me it was a scam.

After watching your video I am sick to my stomach. We are apparently suckers who fell for this scheme. We are deep in the middle of trying to get our money back and get out of this mess. Thank you for what you do. We were only trying to get our mortgage modification put through in the best manner possible. We own a small farm in rural Wisconsin and we do NOT want to lose it or the money we paid to 1st American. ~A Hi Mr. Mattes, I was referred to your site after posting a question on a San Diego News channel’s page regarding 1st American Law Center.
