Loan modification company is out of business - Can I still sue them

I paid a loan modification

company who is backed by a law firm and because they promised me money back guarantee. It has been 6 months, I have not get any good result. They just announced that they are out of business, but my loan mod. packages are still handled by the attorney of the law firm.

the court.

Any help to get my money back would be very much appreciated

(with reasonable fee).

Before you hire another attorney, call the State Bar of California and complain to them. You can call the DRE, but if there is an attorney involved, and the original company is out of business, you are more likely to get somewhere with the Bar Association. Then call Attorney Rothman to file suit.
