I decided to file a Chapter 13 plan with the Law offices Of Peter Francis Geraci, due to falling behind on my mortgage payment.

I had later on found out that the bank I was paying off my mortgage to had try to foreclose on it. I trusted the Law Offices Peter Francis Geraci when they told me my home would not be taken away.

I had come into his office several times to work out plans, and money issues, and ways to save my home. In the mean time I received many notices to appear in court, reguarding the foreclosure on my home.

The attorney I had with Peter Francis Geraci told me those notices were of no importance, and that I DID NOT have to appear.
I later then found out, one of those dates was the SELL OF MY HOME!

I wanted to keep my home more than anything, and I did what I could, and listened to my attorney at Peter Francis Geraci.
I learned that my home was sold when I went in to work on some more numbers and figure out payments.

Thats when I was told my home was already sold, and they could not do anything about it. I WANT MY HOME BACK. I plan to do whatever it takes to get it back, and whatever it takes to get these LIARS out of business!

What Janet Dani are you referring to, because she never went to Las Vegas. WOW. Thats some incorrect information right there, along with everything else you wrote.

Yes there was another attorney hired in Waukegan but was advised to go to a bigger firm, YOURS, and I did just that. The attorney was never paid because the attorney was never used except for the inital file which is paid for before the filing occured. And yes, USUALLY when people are about to lose there home or already are losing there home, they come to you, I believe that is the purpose.

So your statement of "already had a foreclosure judgement against her" probably makes sense. Not understanding why you people didnt get it? People obviously dont come in there and hire an attorney when they are current on payments with their mortage, its not rocket science.

And if that was the truth, about Ms Janet Dani coming in and failed to let you know about the judgement already in place, what kind of lawyers wouldnt know that there is a judgement, obviously the county in which she resided and in which the home in question is was in Lake County, wouldnt you want to check and see if there were any pending cases there reguarding this matter? Again not rocket science.

And the citation to discover assets, if that did happen, that must of been another court date you failed to inform.

And there are several complaints for this company, several on this website alone, and many in others. You cant please everyone, this is a website to share your experiences, and that is what we did.

This report is totally false and malicious

Janet Dani of Graylake Illinois filed this false report. Again, a case of "it's pretty easy to find out who is posting anonymous lies on the internet". Her real complaint should be about herself (one attorney defending her foreclosure withdrew from representing her because she disappeared and was last found by him in Las Vegas).

Before she showed up in our office, she had actually filed a Chapter 13 with ANOTHER very nice attorney in Waukegan, did not pay the attorney or her Chapter 13 payments, and the case was dismissed. She lied and concealed that, and also did not tell us that a foreclosure judgment had ALREADY been entered against her. So she shows up, lies about all that, and hires us to file what we thought was her first Chapter 13. Then she disappeared, failed to sign her documents and file it, only to show up one day with a motion to confirm the sheriff sale that was conducted already, that she never told us about for the NEXT DAY! We informed her that Chapter 13 would not be effective since the house had long ago been sold, and gave her back her retainer. She thanked us and left, only to go home and post ANONYMOUS LIES on this website. She had also been arrested on a warrant for failure to appear on a citation to discover assets. This is the kind of person that posts lies about her attorneys on the internet.

This law firm has a perfect record of NEVER LOSING A HOUSE IN A CHAPTER 7 in 35 years, and NEVER having a complaint held to have merit anywhere by any legitimate entity like a state bar. In fact, having over 300,000 clients without a complaint, growing to probably the largest sole practice in the country with over 50 attorneys doing consumer bankruptcy, we only have a few isolated false statements like Janet Dani's that we feel we have to respond to in order to expose such false, slanderous and malicious postings. We had NOTHING TO DO WITH HER PROBLEMS.
