American Residential Law Group I want to file a class action lawsuit for services NOT rendered! They caused me to loose my home! West Palm Beach , Florida
In February 2010 I paid American Residential Law group to help me modify my home loan mortgage with Bank of America. They promised me that they would help. At the time I researched the company and could not find any negative reporting with the BBB or the Attorney General, in addition I also read that the company made donations to the Make a Wish foundation, I was hooked that these people were legit. ARLG received my payment over 3 months and were paid in full over $2,000. they promised that they were experts and would help me save my home, I faxed documents (tax returns, paystubs, a copy of my DL and social security card. ARLG maintained contact with me for about 6 months and then disappeared! Email addresses no longer worked, and the phone lines were down. I contacted Bank of America who said that my loan was actually scheduled to be modified on Valentines day but due to the lack of communication by ARLG I would have to start the whole lengthy process over. I never heard from them again and I am irate that in this economy people try to do the right thing and get screwed, I want my money back! Ive already lost my home and my credit because of this, and its not even my fault. I want to sue for damages and pain and suffering, I already have depression issues and let me tell you this crap didnt help in the least. Trying to figure out where to live with 3 small children and they KNEW my situation but still had the balls to take my money. They prey on the less fortunate, and Id bet that they are eating bacon wrapped filet mingon and sipping hennessey courtesy of all of their victims! I want JUSTICE!

Well the saga continues with ARLG. After I found out I had been duped I contacted the Florida Bar and gave them all of the doucments I had with ARLG, bank statements, etc. I filed a complaint, and was also advised to fill out a form for the clients security fund, to which I'm hoping I. At the very least see my retainer fee back. I've also received paperwork from the FL bar about the possibility of having to testify against the 2 theiving "attorneys" who robbed so many of us. I'm nor sure what will happen, but I would start with contacting the Bar in your state, file a complaint, and go from there. I know that there is a class action lawsuit against ARLG in Ohio right now. Hopefully some good will come out of all of this mess. Good luck to all :)

SAME exact story here; except we were forced to file bankruptcy to save our home. Now we're making huge payments to a trustee for 5yrs. Yes, they had an A+ rating with BBB when I started also. When I didn't hear back from them I kept calling Bank of America.Next I heard ARLG in FL was shut down. I searched and found so many stories like ours. The BBB rating changed right away....but too late for so many families. My focus changed to saving our home. According to BOA (not to be trusted either)(but whole other story) they were threatening foreclosure. If I ever see a law suit, Im ready.
