Despite having seen complaints on this site, I fell for the radio commercials that Steven Feldman was running in the Los Angeles Market. I spoke with Chris Johnson, and I even asked him to address the complaints. He did so to some satisfaction. Well today Mr. Feldman fired me! I have been asking for some time for proof that an authorization to represent was sent on my behalf. This is something I was promised after I gave my first payment of $2000.00. Today, I informed Mr. Feldman directly that I would be filing a complaint with the bar. To avoid this, he sent me an electronic trail of "all they had done for me". The bank still contacts me daily saying they have received no contact from the lawyer.
All I have been asking for over the past month was reassurance that I was being represennted by a lawyer. I gave all my documentation to one person. She suddenly disappeared. I provided it to another, and they disappeared, and they never acknowledge that they have the documents. In fact, in his electronic trail, Mr. Feldman has notes to protect himself that they cannot get the documents from me - even though they got them multiple times. So today, after I have given them a total of $3495.00, he personally dismissed me as a client. But he was sure to add that he will be keeping fees for the work they didn't do.
I can't believe that this afternoon I made a call, and I'm getting much better service from the government. Call HUD. They will help you.
I should also mention that you do not interact with Feldman unless you complain loudly. Then he will intervene and pretend that he is upset with his staff.
I'm not sure what the Bar Association will do with my complaint, but there was serious misrepresentation going on. There scheme seems to be to make things so confusing that you can't figure out where their misdeeds lie. I have full confidence that these people will be punished for some wrong doing, whether it be a government agency or an eventual class action suit.
Oh, and their response to previous complaints on this board is that obviously the person is a disgruntled employee or someone as they would not be hiding behind the anonymity of this board. I am not anonymous and will happily answer any/all questions that come my way.
The saddest part is that Mr, Feldman has such a big ego is that he believes he is a superhero now. He indicated that he will not help me, but move on to saving peoples homes. It's pretty easy to come in and use an already structured government program to make yourself look like a super hero.
