A notorious Orange County, California loan modification law firm was raided by the FBI, Irvine Police and several other government agencies this afternoon in Irvine.
The law firm and lawyers are no strangers to trouble. The United Law Firm and its two attorneys, Robert Buscho, Bar No. 122556 and also Sean Rutledge, Bar No. 255938 were under investigation by the California State Bar this past year. Rutledge later surrendered his law license under increasing pressure from the weight of the investigation.
California Bar Interim Chief Trial Counsel Russell Weiner said this in September, “The number of attorneys using their law licenses to essentially take money from unwary but trusting consumers is astounding,”

Wow. This is amazing. Its better off to work with an smaller law office with attorneys you trust and who answer your calls. As a rule of thumb, if they don’t answer your calls, or get back to you within one day, they are not to be trusted.

It shows nothing.. they use all these multiple government agencies as a SCARE TACTIC!! ICE was there?? C’mon is this some Drug Cartel that they have to bring 10 different agencies into a “Business” in Irvine with there guns drawn?? I heard they where pointing there hand guns in the faces of female employees.. I mean C’mon! This is Ridiculous!
How many people in jail are mad at there attorneys and want a refund?? Everyone has to remeber that ULG didnt sign your loan documents with the bank as a personal gurantee to get your home. WE DID! So we want to blame everyone as to whos problem it is and as a last attempt we hire a LAW FIRM for $1750 to try and get us out of the mess we put ourselves into. As well as not making payments on the home which we live in for over 10 months?? Everyone has to pay rent? What gives us the right not to pay ANYTHING for the home we live in then place ALL our blame on ONE LAW FIRM hat we tried to use to get us some more time in our house FOR FREE!! ITS TIME TO WAKE UP AND LOOK AT THE REAL PROBLEM and thats the banks!!!
Its about time they finally listened to all the complaints. They called the customers not the customer called them for their business(ULG) this was the most poorest run business I have ever encountered not only do they do business through a calling service but when you call to ask for the main office which they advertise in New York you still get the same calling center taking your calls at the so called heard quarters (JOKE)!!!!! They have scammed us all and we want our money back!
I don’t know how the employees went to sleep every night knowing they work for scum bags!!!!! Oh please Mr. hinks sounds like you work for them don’t tell any of us your opinion which means nothing to all of us who were scammed!!!!!!!
The employees that work there all sound like robots!!!!! They all tell you the same thing ,that is if you can get them to return a call another (JOKE)!!!!!!!!! They should have been raided a long time ago, what lawyer tells you to get the F- – - out of his office when you are trying to find out what is going on with your loan mod they are suppose to be helping you with, real professionals ??????????? and you have given then hard earned money that you work for to get treated like this ???? I hope they all burn in hell!!!!!!
The current raid on law firms representing people in modifications, is a way to deflect the press from reporting what is really going on. Which is the abusive modification process that is taking place by BofA and other too big to fail banks. Let’s face it, the elephant in the room is not the American Dream concerning health care, but the American nightmare concerning the loan modification process. It is OUTRAGEOUS, considering that they have received a bail out from the American Tax Payer, who is also the average American Home Owner. After receiving a bail out in the billions from the American people, these banks have the audacity to harass, delay and humiliate us during the loan modification process called HAMP. How long do these banks think that the American people will tolerate this? One of the BofA representatives even went as far as telling me that the government can not tell them what to do. I found this strange, because I never brought the government up with the BofA representative. So, I can not help but feel that BofA is bitter and is taking it out on those of us seeking a loan modification. It is also readily apparent, that BofA feels that they only have to meet their obligation to the government by CONSIDERING a loan modification with zero accountability. It is time that we make BofA accountable!
BofA knows very well that the average homeowner requesting a modification does not have the funds to represent themselves legally. So, the FBI raiding one of the largest and most reputable law firms, will only serve these banks potential agenda. An agenda that might be to scare any law firms from representing the people. This current action by the FBI is not the solution, but a symptom of the over all problem. It is also blurring the lines in regards to who the real bad guys are. It will also further delay the process of reputable law firms like United Law Group from filing legitimate law suits. In retrospect, United Law Group is not only helping me represent myself in this law suit, but every American who is going through the loan modification process.
So please, help me and United Law Group send a message to BofA which states, that we will no longer tolerate their potentially irregular, fraudulent and abusive business practices. In the end, the American tax payer did not fail to deliver the BofA bail out in record time, but BofA failed to deliver the American Tax Payer’s bail out in the form of a loan modification. It reminds me of that song by John Lennon titled “Piggies” I invite you to listen to this song on youtube and see if it appropriately fits.
