Ohio AG Files Civil Suit Charging Alleged Loan Modification Racket Of Pocketing Upfront Cash, Then Failing To Deliver Promised Services

From the Office of the Ohio Attorney General:
  • Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine [] announced a lawsuit against Christopher Rojas of Irvine, Calif., for running a foreclosure rescue operation that used multiple business names and failed to deliver on its promises to lower consumers' mortgage payments. The lawsuit charges Rojas with multiple violations of Ohio's consumer laws.
***
  •  Christopher Rojas, working out of California, promises consumers that he will reduce their mortgage payments in exchange for fees of approximately $3,000 per consumer. Despite accepting substantial down payments, Rojas fails to provide beneficial services to consumers and fails to refund their money.
  • According to the Attorney General, Rojas also routinely changes his business names when consumer complaints begin to surface. Rojas has done business as National Juris Solutions, US National Legal Solutions, Weston & Wyatt, Merrill & Warren, and Legacy Holdings Group.
