Jan/Case Manager might be one of the kindest/Rudest (2 Face $$ Talks) ladies I've ever had to deal with. I'm in the process of a claim due to poor communication & Trust. Jan can Respond to this and if she does I promise to post screenshots that she left me and my family during a forclorsure/"Redemption plan" "all about $$" I'm now in the process of fighting this claim! I will be HAPPY/GLADLY to bring this to court if I have to.
