Foreclosure mill closes office, fires 89 after "the Halloween Party" mocking ppl who lost homes.

from TPM

You remember the law firm where the employees dressed up as the homeless and mocked people who had lost their homes to foreclosure. The posting of those pictures caused such a back lash, the firm has now closed, discharging all 89 employees.

While I hate that 89 ppl lost their jobs, it was an expensive lesson. Wonder how many of them learned it?

referrals.

Cosmetics here.

to see where they next show up.

Don't understand what made these people think take such a sick turn of mind about foreclosures. Sorry for any not involved in the nastiness who may be out of work, but good riddance to the firm.

Agreed, sorry about the lost jobs but hopefully some of them will learn what its like to be in a foreclosure and become more empathetic for it.

some balance was achieved here at long last. Poor sparklings. Better get the resumes ready. At least they have the clothes to be homeless if they fail.

involved in mocking the very people they were laying off.

Screw em.

It was obvious that there was something wrong, even after she got help from an attorney, that office would not return any calls, just pushed through the fore-closure, refusing to respond to anyone. The year of the photos was the year we were trying to reach them to discuss the fore-closure.

A Class-Action Rico suit was filed against them last year and now the US Attorney is looking into criminal charges against them.

I was surprised they were still operating, and could not be more delighted that they had to shut down. They were a threat to the public having been responsible for tens of thousands of people losing their homes, and part of the whole foreclosure scam. There should have been a moratorium on all foreclosures once the corruption began to be exposed.

I wish he had been shut down long ago. But better late than never.
