Author: Attorney Andy Driggs was interviewed Tuesday on the BOSS Business Brief radio show and disclosed to host Toby Mathis that lenders are not even bothering to show up for mediations. In the interview that airs on KNUU 970 AM and KDOX 1280 AM in Las Vegas, Mr. Driggs discusses his recent experiences with lenders and an his decision to offer no money down bankruptcy services to homeowners in need – part of the “Save Your Home Tour” being launched in December.
Las Vegas, NV (PRWEB) November 25, 2009 — Andy Driggs, a Nevada attorney with over 18 years of experience, is no stranger to courtrooms, mediations or legal wrangling. Being one of the first lawyers in Nevada to handle loan modification mediations under AB 149 (the recently enacted loan modification laws in Nevada mandating mediation between lenders and borrowers) has proven to be an unusual experience for Driggs. The lenders have thus far proven to be elusive – they are not sending anyone to the mediations as required by law. Toby Mathis, host of the BOSS Business Brief which is airing an interview with Driggs this week, said “Andy told me the banks were basically refusing to cooperate – that the mediators were trying to get a hold of the banks at the mediations to see why nobody from the lenders was present.” Mathis continued, “It has to be extremely frustrating for a homeowner who is in danger of losing the family home to be met with apathy from a lender.”
The result is that all homeowners need to be aware of their rights and how to proceed against their lender if the lender will not participate in the modifications process. The runaround is coming in the loan modification process. Attorney Aaron Yen of BOSS Loan Modifications, LLC during an interview on the BOSS Business Brief last week explained how frustrating the loan modification process could even for attorneys representing borrowers. “I have spent 2 and a half hours on the phone” explained Mr. Yen “…where they (the lender) do not even know where the file is…” It is not uncommon to spend hours upon hours simply trying to find a lender’s representative who actually has information on a particular loan. “Having someone with the internal fortitude to push things through even in the face of apathy is critical” explained Mathis.
Driggs went on during his interview that his firm, Driggs Law Group, and BOSS Loan Modifications, LLC have teamed up to create the “Save Your Home Tour” where homeowners are going to be offered No Money Down Loan Modifications and No Money Down Bankruptcies. This is the first time such an offering has ever been made available to homeowners in Nevada.
The tour is expected to include a series of free seminars in the Las Vegas area where representatives of both firms will explain homeowners’ options that work in real life. Mathis explained “there are those that speculate and those that do…I prefer to bring the people who actually do the modifications and legal proceeding onto the show to tell folks what is really going on.” He added “When times are tough – I do not think people need to pile it on…the fact that there are No Money Down options out there let’s people know that they do not have to go it alone if they do not have a ton of money.”
The BOSS Business Brief featuring the interview with Andy Driggs airs the week of November 23rd on both KNUU and KDOX in Las Vegas.
