OakTree Law is a fantastic law firm when it comes to Loan Modification. Atty. Mark Hoffman and his assistant Jennifer Leonard both did a fantastic job and I highly recommend the firm to everyone.

I was familiar with OakTree Law, as I had heard of them advertised on KFI AM 640 before, my favorite talk radio station. So when I was in need of an Attorney to witness me signing my closing documents for an out-of-state real estate transaction (a requirement by the out of state Attorneys), and saw their firm in my internet search, I called them up ASAP!! Attorney Reza Pejuhesh was extremely courteous, professional, and helped me out tremendously by allowing me to retain their services to witness me signing my real estate document! I am very appreciative of the services offered! And everyone that walked by the front door was very helpful making sure I was helped!! Thank you very much OakTree Law!!! :-)

“She gathered more information and did more for me during my FREE initial visit than my entire 3 years with another attorney. It took Julie 4 days to file the appeal and get my case back in order.”

***PLEASE READ THIS*** I have never given a review before but I am compelled to do so. My family had enjoyed a stable living and income until my husband began to have serious unexplained medical issues. He was not able to contribute financially and with only my income for my family, bills began to add up quick. After exhausting our savings, my daughters college fund and selling what assets we could, we had no choice but to file for bankruptcy protection to save our home. We decided as a family that we would walk away from the home that we loved because there was no other recourse. Days later we were notified by my husbands Dr. that he was diagnosed with MS. Devastated, I can only describe our situation as dire. I heard an ad on KFI about OakTree Law. The radio announcer sounded sincere about their reputation and after a day or so I called. I was EXTREMELY hesitant to talk to another lawyer but the minute I spoke to Julie Villalobos it was apparent that she cared......yes, cared! She gathered more information and did more for me during my FREE initial visit than my entire 3 years with another attorney. It took Julie 4 days to file the appeal and get my case back in order. We continued filing motions for an additional year so that I could juggle my finances and send my daughter to college. Just last month I made my last bankruptcy payment and my case is closed! Julie and her team not only helped and did their job, they put a personal touch on the case by giving it their full attention and keeping me updated through email, phone calls, emails and texting. Julie is tenacious. I can't believe the difference in services. I have now begun the Loan Modification process with Marissa Pitts at Oaktree. Things are flying by and we should be filing next week. I know better days are on the horizon and can only say that the radio ad set my family on a new course......THANK YOU OAK TREE LAW.

How do I say thank you to such great people. My bank was treating me like a dog. I would send in all the documents they wanted again and again. When they finally came back with what they said was help, they lowered my payment 37 dollars, that’s right 37 dollars…I came to OakTree Law and with their guidance and help, I received a modification that lowered my payment by 824 dollars and brought it current. Thanks!

Thanks OakTree Law for helping me stay in my home: I find that it is not just neat, but absolutely great when you can get the help you need at a critical time. My home was/is upside down, I was unable to pay the mortgage, and I needed help to stay in my home. How I got into this circumstance is not relevant, but I will tell you anyway. I used to own five rental properties purchased with equity from my primary home, which is now under water. And then the bottom fell from real estate investments. Rental houses were now worth less and I couldn’t rent them for enough to cover costs, and so I began to lose money – first the rental properties, and then I was about to lose the home in which I have lived 23 years. I had talked to friends and colleagues who had coordinated their own loan modification successfully, and yet I needed help right now to avoid foreclosure. I didn’t have time for trial and error… OakTree Law gave me 60 minutes of free consulting during which I saw the light at the end of the tunnel. I had talked to other companies that offered free consulting; they didn’t stand out as did OakTree Law. Two weeks later I told Marissa I wanted to work with her, she told me what documentation to assemble, and we arranged our next meeting. I will tell you than I consider myself rather well organized, which made it quite easy to meet Marissa’s documentation requirements. My second and last meeting with Marissa lasted 2 hours during which time I filled in forms, she assembled financial information before calling and establishing prerequisite arrangements with mortgage servicer, I crafted a hardship letter, and all the required documentation was faxed to mortgage servicer then and there. Three weeks later I was informed by mortgage servicer I had been accepted for trial loan modification. I have since completed trial payments and loan mod is now permanent. My monthly mortgage is reduced from $2,540 to $1,325, a reduction of more than $1,200/month. Specifics of my loan modification include a 2% interest rate; maturity is extended to 40 years, and forbearance in the amount of $110,000. Thank you, OakTree Law for your efficiency and your effectiveness. Thank you, Marissa for being so good at what you do. You knew what was needed, when it would be needed, you knew the ins and outs of the process and you went about it with a purposefulness I genuinely appreciate and admire. Marissa, you ROCK… With much appreciation, Herman Powells

Thanks for helping me on my loan modification. I tried to do it myself, but just ran into dead ends dealing with Bank of America. After going through the process with OakTree Law working with me, I know it wouldn't have been possible without their help. Loan mods require professional assistance from an attorney who knows what they are doing and who will stand up to banks and ensure that the bank's employees won't deny you a modification due to incompetence. I also appreciate their honest way of doing business and only accepting cases they know are able to modify, quite contrary to other horror stories I've heard of. I would recommend them to anyone I know who is contemplating a loan mod.

OakTree Law is awesome! I was literally about to walk away from my home because I was getting nowhere with B of A and felt hopeless. Until, I heard the radio commercial and called. Long story short I kept my home and got my interest rate reduced from 7.25 to 3.875 percent. Im now stress free and opening up the next chapter in my life thanks to the assistance of OakTree Law. Marissa Pitts is a great person that assured me the whole time with great confidence that my modification would happen. And it did, but not overnight. So be patient and believe in Oaktree.
