South Florida "foreclosure mill" Ben-Ezra & Katz have announced that it has been forced to lay off almost half of its 568 employees after Fannie Mae "fired" the firm last week. In a memo released by a Ben-Ezra & Katz company spokesman said the firm was "forced to take this action after Fannie Mae surprisingly terminated its relationship with the firm."
Fannie Mae terminated its relationship with the firm in early February citing "document execution issues" and it informed the servicers of Fannie Mae loans to stop all payments to Ben-Ezra and Katz and to find new law firms to handle former Ben-Ezra & Katz cases immediately. it is estimated that Ben-Ezra & Katz handled at least 18,000 foreclosure cases in Florida alone.
