United Law Group Files Suit Against Bank of America on Behalf of John Wright

Santa Clara, CA (Vocus) March 23, 2010

United Law Group filed a complaint (case number 1-ten-CV-166846) on March 18, 2010 in the Superior Court of the State of California, County of Santa Clara, against Bank of America and its subsidiary Countrywide Property Loans, Inc. for breaches of contractual obligations, violation of the Restatement (Second) of Contracts Section 205, emotional distress, and violation of California Organization and Professions Code Section 17200.

&#13

This case states that though John Wright qualified for a mortgage modification below the Federal Property Inexpensive Modification Program (HAMP), he was denied access to the government-sponsored strategy.

&#13

I met the qualifications for HAMP and with United Law Group assisting me did every little thing the bank asked, mentioned Mr. Wright.

&#13

Mr. Wright continued to make the necessary payments in a timely manner and referred to as Bank of America frequently to ensure the success of the procedure. Each time he was told not to be concerned.

&#13

At one particular point a bank representative told me that I had nothing to be concerned about since Id completed every thing appropriate, said Mr. Wright. I happy the monetary terms of the trial modification and submitted the essential documentation before the August two, 2009 deadline, but Bank of America nonetheless sent a Notice of Intent to Accelerate.

&#13

At the completion of the Trial Period Bank of America claimed it did not have the essential paperwork. In spite of numerous attempts by Mr. Wright to fax, re-fax and submit the documents by certified carrier, Mr. Wright received a letter on February 16, 2010 refusing his loan modification and demanding that he pay a lump sum payment or risk foreclosure proceedings.

&#13

John Wright and his economic scenario have been abused by the bank to the point exactly where litigation is his only recourse, stated Robert Buscho, Managing Lawyer for United Law Group. Sadly, his case is not distinctive. Millions of innocent, challenging operating citizens are getting misled and abused by the banks. Unless property owners take a stand this will not adjust.

&#13

United Law Group requires an aggressive stance against predatory lending practices and is an outspoken advocate on behalf of honest citizens who have been hurt by the housing and mortgage crisis.

&#13

We filed the case on behalf of Mr. Wright since the banks can not be permitted to continue to blatantly disregard this crisis, said Buscho. The United States government has asked banks to be a component of the remedy and has gone so far as to use taxpayer dollars as an incentive. We are merely carrying the torch lit by our officials to shed a light on and hopefully remediate predatory practices.

&#13

The banks use misinformation and misdirection till you cannot distinguish the very good guys from the poor guys. They make you afraid to get assist, mentioned Mr. Wright. Its ironic to me that United Law Groups reputation is in query proper now. Theyve been truthful with me throughout this ordeal and I count my blessings that I have United Law Group on my group.

&#13

The firm made the news recently when a group of officials entered their offices to evaluate the operate they are doing for their clientele.

&#13

Its been the banks that have mislead the public, mentioned Mr. Wright. United Law Group could have shut their doors and stopped helping folks after obtaining their practice was questioned, but they didnt. They were in the midst of preparing my case prior to it occurred and their attorneys filed my suit against Bank of America seven days later.

&#13

Addvent Funding Wants to Dispell the Myths About Bank of America’s New Principal Reduction Program and What it Truly Entails

Tampa, FL (PRWEB) April 1, 2010

Addvent Funding LLC of Tampa Florida has released, as of April 1st, an updated version of their Principal Reduction Plan, which however can be misunderstood as a really related system to the a single Bank of America has produced public as of March 24th. There are even so, several misconceptions regarding the coverage of BofA’s recent announcement of a principal reduction initiative, particularly its relationship to the Home Affordable Modification System (HAMP). This confusion also extends to the Treasurys Friday announcement. There are extremely handful of firms that in fact supply a true way to decrease your principal balance and Addvent Funding is one of a really really modest few. Never be misconstrued by clever wordsmithing from Bank of America’s legal department, they are virtually being forced to do what they are covering up as a ‘new initiative’.

&#13

The BofAs plan at concern is a response to an $ eight.6 billion dollar settlement with regards to a quite distinct set of loans inherited by way of BofAs 2008 acquisition of Countrywide, not a meaningful answer to the core issue of negative equity in residential genuine estate. (1)

&#13

This specific missing context is disappointing, but the greatest concern relating to the coverage of this BofA program” is the conflation with genuine HAMP initiatives (both current and in-improvement) that seek to address the ongoing crisis and give support to the millions of underwater property owners. In spite of their (apparently effective) spin, the system announced by Bank of America is not such a approach it is simply a stipulation from an out-of-court settlement agreement.

&#13

Additionally, the announcement by the Treasury Department is also being widely and inaccurately linked with Bank of Americas press release March 24th. Whilst the Treasury is rightly focusing on options aimed to help these in the most dire of situations, these initiatives do not address the millions of homeowners that are functioning difficult to make payments on a loan that overvalues their residence by up to 50%.

&#13

While every person can hope that the Treasurys effort to encourage bank reductions in principal loan balances for struggling homeowners is effective, there is evidence to suggest widespread acceptance and implementation of this approach may possibly be challenging to receive. (two)

&#13

In the case of a homeowner that is both able to make month-to-month payments and owes considerably far more than the house is worth, lenders will contemplate principal reduction only when acceptance of a principal reduction addresses the main issues of the lender capitalization requirements, liability reduction, and risk aversion.

&#13

New Principal Reduction Applications (PRP) are emerging that can support homeowners otherwise ignored. Addvent Funding LLC is one example of a new economic organization that assists responsible home owners facing severe declines in house value via no fault of their personal to negotiate significant principal reductions down to existing market place values.

&#13

In the current climate, lenders such as Bank of America are mainly concerned with asset valuation, danger reduction / avoidance, and capitalization specifications. In order for a lender to accept a principal reduction on an asset they personal, the terms of the principal reduction have to favorably address these issues. Addvent Funding LLC and its affiliates understand these motivating factors, and structure meaningful options in conjunction with lenders making use of leverage created by way of portfolio negotiation. (three)

&#13

For further information of Addvent Funding LLC, please make contact with Mr. Zack Larson.

&#13

(1) The lawsuit contends that roughly 45,000 Alternative ARM loans issued by Countrywide have been predatory in nature which means the lender, broker and/or economic advisor charged with fully disclosing the risks and obligations linked with this sort of loan failed to adequately do so, to the detriment of the borrower. Bank of America agreed to an out-of-court settlement of $ 8.6 billion dollars directed to address this certain group of loans. Bank of Americas principal reduction announcement is a distinct situation of that settlement.

&#13

See – http://www.law.com/jsp/report.jsp?id=1202446753100

&#13

(two) The Treasury Departments strategy does not address specific fundamental elements of the housing crisis, such as the following: For a lot of homeowners, reduction in principal and/or interest price does not necessarily equate to decreased monthly payments if that homeowner has been generating an interest only or minimum payment. In this case, the modification might not address the basic issue of monthly payment reduction, as a result failing to substantially minimize foreclosure danger.

&#13

When calculating the 31% debt to earnings threshold, usually second mortgage payment obligations are not integrated in the equation. Consequently, the affordability of these solutions can be somewhat misleading.

&#13

This is the second try by the Treasury Department to incentivize the lenders to minimize principal balances for struggling property owners. Lenders have primarily demonstrated an unwillingness to give principal reductions that would lessen the loan amount to the existing market place worth of the house. Alternatively, the principal reduction supplies short-term payment relief, but does not re-equify the borrower, meaning they nonetheless owe far more than the property is presently worth. The outcome is continued anxiety on the lenders balance sheet, and the genuine danger of an individual walking away from a mortgage alternatively of paying more for a residence than it is worth, even if they now can afford the payment.

United Law Group to Appeal Ruling in Case Against Bank of America and Subsidiary Countrywide House Loans


Irvine, CA (Vocus) February eight, 2010

United Law Group will appeal the dismissal of their suit against Bank of America and its subsidiary Countrywide Property Loans in the 19th Circuit Court of Appeals. Previously denied their motion to dismiss the lawsuit in the Santa Ana Federal Court, Bank of America attorney argued that the bank had the proper to slander United Law Group simply because of Californias anti-SLAPP (Strategic Lawsuit Against Public Participation) law. U.S. District Judge Andrew J. Guilford agreed to dismiss the case primarily based on the laws broad-sweeping language, which delivers protection to massive corporations.

&#13

The anti-SLAPP statute cited by the judge in this case has been amended 5 occasions and has more than 330 distinct legal opinions. The ruling fundamentally says that its okay for corporations to slander in the name of enterprise, mentioned United Law Group Managing Director Robert Buscho. If a man on the street stated the items that the Bank of America representatives said they would be liable. Anti-SLAPP law provides protections to massive corporations that the average individual does not have.

The original case was filed in the Superior Court of the State of California County of Orange Central Justice Center against Bank of America and its subsidiary Countrywide Property Loans, Inc. for tortuous interference with contract, defamation (slander) and unfair organization practices (pursuant to B&ampP Code
