On August 2009 I met w Attorney Eddy Hsu with The Law Offices of Scott J. Sagaria in Redwood City, CA to discussed Bankruptcy options and it was decided that he would assist me filing under a Chapter 13 plan in order to save my residency.That was the only opportunity I had to meet w him. By the time I went to court some other attorney showed up which was not familiar with my case. They had lost all my paper work including my pay stubs and the fool they had sent was angry at me for not having my pay stubs w me. The case was almost drop.
Last fall I became aware that my property taxes had not been included in the Chapter 13 plan.Spoke w both Alameda and Sonoma County Property Tax Collector's office who explained that my attorney had not included property taxes when I filed and recommended I talk to my attorney to do an addendum.
Attempted to reach Attorney Hsu as well as office manager Jody Kasich by phone and e mail but I got no answer.I have been on hold for over an hours and then disconnected or just out right hang up.
Eventually, I spoke with Hilary at Sagaria who then explained that both Hsu and Kasich had left a year ago and that now I needed to send all questions via e mail.I sent e mails and I got no answer back so on December 1, 2010, I threaten to file a complaint with the Better Business Bureau and at that time I was able to speak by someone named Garrett.
Garrett agreed to help me and then he requested some paper work to which I faxed right away.He explained that my monthly payment with my trust was going to increase and that he was going to fax me some paper work to sign.
Attempted to contact Garrett all the month of December but he never returned my phone calls. I was told by Hilary that he had received the paper work and that everything was going to get done.In January after failed attempts to speak with anyone at Sagaria Law, I called my Trustee Martha G. Bronitsky and they reported that they have not received any addendum or any other correspondence on my case from Sagaria.
Once again on January 21, I threaten to bring this issue to the Better Business Bureau and left a message with office manager who called back and left a message reporting that he was referring my case to someone by the name of Eliot and that Garrett has out ill.
This lead to having to come up w all the money for back up property taxes which i don't have... reason why i filed for bankruptsy. I have filed a complain w the CA state bar.
