SB94 does not allow for upfront fees even for lawyers. So you are definitely getting scammed. Find a genuine law firm to help you or a non profit organization. Even if they are lawyers check if they are genuine and if you meet with them or at a real law office. http://calbar.ca.gov/state/calbar/calbar_cbj.jsp?sCategoryPath=/Home/Attorney%20Resources/California%20Bar%20Journal/November2009&sCatHtmlPath=cbj/2009-11_TH_02_foreclosure.html&sCatHtmlTitle=Top%20Headlines We handle many loan modifications, but every day we see people scammed.

I am waiting to see how things go myself. I have been told things, but I have no idea if they are fact. I am told it is being worked and that they have conferenced twice with the lender. We are 4 months behind at this time. We are currently dealing with AFP at this time. I am waiting to see how things go myself. I have been told things, but I have no idea if they are fact.
