Long story short this company is a BIG SCAM. They offer to modify your loan. They only want your money, and once they have it then do nothing for the $2995.00 . These evil people charge you at front fees, once they received your money and paperwork they will leave you in the dark to wonder what is happening with your case and each time you call you will get a voice mail, they won't return your calls. So stay away from them they are evil

I opened a file with Christian M Dillion back in February 2009. I paid $4, 000 for assistance with a loan modification. After I paid and submitted all paper work I never heard from them again. Over the next 6 months I tried to speak with the attorney, but was denied. I also finally spoke with Michelle McCarthy in June. She admitted they never reviewed my file and suggested I request a refund. Haven't been able to speak to anyone since. STAY AWAY.

Same story as William G. I also paid Christian M Dillon in February 2009. Worked with Michelle McCarthy for awhile and in June 2009 she informed me that the office was closing down and my file would be transferred to Dana Point office. Worked with some people there, to no avail. In August 2009 Christian Dillon surrendered his license to practice law, his office was shut down and he is being investigated. I started contacting my lender myself, had to have my foreclosure date postponed and modified my loan myself. I paid for services that were never rendered. All I kept hearing is that you need to "wait". I heard that for 6 months. When I stared calling in August, after the office was shut down by the State Bar, my loan was modified within 3 weeks. I had to resend paperwork that my lender said they never received from Christain Dillon's office. So, I too was scammed and lost $3000.00. Throughout this whole process I kept being told by Christian Dillon's office not to contact the lender; well when I started contacting the lender myself the loan mod started to move forward.

I was rip off by The Law Offices of Christian M Dillon. I handed a cashier check to Arturo Sicairos payable to The Law Offices of Christian M Dillon with the amount of $2995. It seem strange to handle a check on a parking lot, but I did not pay much attention because I thought Arturo worked with Christian. Later on, I called to check on my case and a lady said that the person working on my case was not longer there and that another person was going to work on my case. I kept calling and calling and it has been five months and only a message machine answers saying that the office is closed. I been looking for people in the same situation, since it seems that there are many I wonder if we can share e-mail addresses to file a complaint through court or something like that.

I had the same issue with Dillon's office. We have used Pasha Law to file a group compliant. You may wish to contact them. Here is a link: http://blog.pashalaw.com/category/loan-modification-fraud/. We have not received any reimbursement as of yet, but we are hopeful. We have entered a forbearance with our lender as they had set the trustee sale date about the same time we had contacted the lender with our concerns. The lender said Dillon never returned any of their phone calls, so they move towards foreclosure. We are still trying to get a modification and may have to file bankruptcy. We did have issues before Dillon, but he really made our problems worse.

Im sorry to hear about other people that had issues with Mr. Dillon. I knew that I would not be the only victim. I had actually came to him a day before the trustee sale and filed Ch:13 which I can commend him for doing at such notice..
Then after filing a second time I was taught a little more about the guidelines of C:13 and by the time my hearings had happened he disappeared. After repeated phone calls and even talking to someone there after the Aug.4th date that he lost his license I was still not informed of the news.. In the end my questions weren't answered and I ended up losing a property that had at least 200k in equity in todays market because of the people that vouched for him and himself.. Wekks later still no advice or apology... People know that the State Bar puts funds aside to pay back people that used a licensed Attorney..
