Welcome to the Information Website for the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau v. Siringoringo Settlement.

If you paid a fee to the Siringoringo Law Firm between July 22, 2011 and July 26, 2013, you may have been entitled to a payment under the terms of a federal lawsuit.

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, also known as the CFPB, is a government agency responsible for enforcing laws that protect consumers. In July of 2014, the CFPB sued the Siringoringo Law Firm, Stephen Siringoringo, and others because they illegally charged upfront fees for mortgage-relief services, such as home-loan modifications.
