Merrill & Associates This law firm was supposed to work out a mortgage loan modification; they took my money, never reached an agreement and completly stopped contacting me. My home will be foreclosed on September 1st. New York Nationwide

I obtained this law firm to assist me in a loan modification for my home. They guaranteed me that they would help me save my home, and I paid them over $3,000 to do so. This was in January; my home is now scheduled for a September 1st foreclosure, and now this company refuses to return my emails, and the contact numbers that I was given and had been using are no longer working. Ironically, I never had any trouble contacting this company when I was making my scheduled payments, but once they got all of my money, communication steadily slowed to now none at all.

The actual attorny, Eileen Schlissel who is supposed to be working on my file, has never returned any of my calls, yet her number is the only working line that remains. I am still calling and emailing everyday, if nothing else to have a paper trail because I definitely plan on suing.

I am a single mother who works hard everyday, and I am facing the harsh reality of losing my home because of a LAW FIRM that has clearly fooled me into believing that they could and would help me. I can even recall one of my processors saying adamantly that "I would NOT lose my home." If you receive any offers from this company, please beware. Don't end up like me, not having a home for my children because I trusted the wrong company.  Beware!!!
