Florida Attorney General Sets Sights on Foreclosure Law Firm

---

Ben-Ezra & Katz, the Florida-based foreclosure default law firm that laid off hundreds of staff after Fannie Mae pulled its business, is now the subject of an investigation launched by the Florida Attorney General’s office.

The AG’s office said the Fort Lauderdale-based law firm is being investigated for allegedly "fabricating or presenting false and misleading documents in foreclosure cases," according to information published on the AG’s website.

Four other foreclosure law firms are under investigation, according to the AG’s site, including one naming the Florida foreclosure law firm of David J. Stern, which also lost Fannie’s business last year over issues related to its handling of foreclosures.
