    As homeowners ourselves, we recognize the stress that an unaffordable mortgage puts on youand your family. As such, each and every one of our owners, employees and affiliates iscommitted to working with your lenders to expedite your loan mediation and get you into amortgage that you can afford. Our client-centered mediators work with you, keeping youabreast of developments in your case to make this time as stress-free as possible. Unlikefactory modification companies that submit the same modification proposal for every client,

    our mediators tailor the workout plan to fit your individual loan, even if it means negotiatingcreative solutions with your lender. While this takes a bit more time and much more effort,finding a way to keep you in your home is worth it!Our client-centered approach isnt the only thing that differentiates us from other loanmodification companies. In addition to our mediators outstanding customer service, The U.S.Mitigation Service actually retains negotiators on your behalf to perform a mortgage audit toidentify federal and state legal violations which provide grounds for legal action, should youchoose to pursue it. These negotiators deal with lenders like yours every day and bypass thenormal red tape associated with loss mitigation departments. Also, if legal violations are found,you have a choice of pursuing litigation, thereby maximizing your monetary recovery, or merely

    allowing us to use the violations as leverage to get you the best possible modification. Whilenearly every one of our clients opt for modification over costly and time consuming litigation,we let you decide which avenue works best for your situation. For the same price or less thanother mitigation companies charge homeowners, The U.S. Mitigation Service pursues everyavenue possible to save your home.

    Our SOLE focus is on you, the client. As such, we are only concerned about your financialfuture, not the Lenders. We work for you our client with no up front fees. Our counselors accessyour situation, we do a pre-qual to make sure you actually qualify, and then contact your lenderand go over your file, and then share all of the information with you so you can decide if youwould like to go to step two. And keep in mind if you choose to stop the process there is

    absolutely no charge for the work already completed.
