Financial Counseling 2020

9/4/2020

 
In light of covid-19 developments Stacey Braun is suspending the face to face consultation component of the Financial Counseling Program until further notice.  In the interim they are offering consultations via web conferencing or phone consultations. ​Stacey Braun has engaged an encrypted and very user friendly web conferencing service.  Members can also continue to access their website (which has been recently upgraded) using the same user ID and password that was assigned when your group began the Program.
Picture
Members who take advantage of web meetings, will still be able to have in person one on one meetings later once Stacey Braun resumes offering them.  By offering a web meeting and face to face meeting later Stacey Braun hopes to prevent member’s from using the change to procrastinate or delay their use of the program and mitigate consultation bottle-necks down the road.

Call Stacey Braun @ Telephone: (888) 949-1925

Home Title Fraud

9/4/2020

 
Picture
Mirkin & Gordon recently learned of an uptick in a scam known as home title fraud, wherein someone steals another person’s identity to obtain title to their home and use it to secure loans using the homeowner’s equity, as collateral. 

This has also sparked an increase in advertisements for service providers claiming to be able to protect homeowners from this scam.
 To help increase your awareness of home title fraud, how to avoid it and what to do if they think they have been victimized, please read the attached informational article.

Under our legal services program, our firm’s attorneys, Mirkin & Gordon, are available for consultation for members who think they have been victimized.
