Westchester Residential Opportunities Busted For Illegal Solicitations
New York Non-Profit Westchester Residential Opportunities Busted Poaching Clients From Attorneys
White Plains-based housing non-profit Westchester Residential Opportunities is in hot water. WRO is being accused of illegally poaching clients by multiple lawyers.
New York foreclosure defense lawyers state their clients have been receiving letters and emails from WRO‘s Mortgage Default Director Veronica Raphael.
A copy of the email was forwarded to MFI-Miami. Raphael’s letters encourage people to fire their attorneys and retain Westchester Residential Opportunities.
The emails and letters also imply the homeowner’s lawyer is ripping off the homeowner. She also makes the fraudulent claim that a loan modification application STOPS a foreclosure in New York. It does not.
She also implies you don’t need to be a lawyer to practice law. You can but nothing pisses off a judge more than a Know-It-All pro se litigant rambling on about Rothschild Family or Illuminati conspiracy theories.
It appears Veronica Raphael is preying on the legal ignorance of people in Westchester County. In other words, she is doing exactly what Wells Fargo was busted for in the Baltimore Ghetto Loans scam.
Several lawyers have filed complaints with HUD. They have also filed grievances with the New York State Grievance Commission for the 9th District in White Plains. The complaints allege Westchester Residential Opportunities Board members Margaret M. (Gretchen) Flint and Alan R. Wolfert authorized the unethical campaign.
Flint is also a law professor at Pace University and Wolfert has been a lawyer since 1966. Both should know that this kind of behavior is unethical.
