Connecticut Attorney A Target In Mortgage Fraud Lawsuits
In one case, brought by the State of Connecticut, state Attorney General Richard Blumenthal said of them and their co-defendants:
- “The defendants misled consumers and mortgage lenders into property purchases that financially destroyed dozens of homebuyers, while benefiting only the defendants, their associates and family members.”
In this case, the state of Connecticut is seeking civil penalties for violations of the Unfair Trade Practices Act and financial relief for those harmed. The co-defendants in this case include Elisabeth Athan Real Estate, L.L.C., of Shelton, CT and Jose Guzman of Waterford, CT, a former employee of Royal Financial who was recently charged with mail fraud and wire fraud by Federal investigators and prosecutors.
