“Your power isn’t defined by the size of your opponent—it’s written into the law. When corporations treat you unfairly, remember: your rights are both a shield and a sword.”

Bank Refusing Your Refund?

You have rights under federal laws like EFTA. We’ll fight to enforce them.

Hit with Junk Fees or Treated Unfairly?

Did a company cross the line by misleading you or treating you in a way that’s unfair? Corporate tricks and scams are too common.

If you saw something and want to fight back, let’s talk about holding them accountable in DC or Maryland.

Fighting corporate abuse.
Defending people.

I’m Angel. I’m a consumer protection lawyer. I help people use the power given to them by consumer protection laws.

I spent years fighting for people as a federal attorney at the Federal Trade Commission and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. I’ve stopped companies that exploited veterans, pushed illegal loans, and charged people without their consent.

Now, I run my own firm in Washington, D.C. We help people stand up to mortgage companies, banks, and corporations that abuse their power.

This work is personal. I know the consequences when the system fails people. No one should lose their home or their savings because a company cut corners or played games with the rules.

If you feel alone fighting a giant company, you’re not. Let’s hold them accountable, together.

Questions?

We work on most cases on a contingency basis. You pay nothing up front. Our fee comes from the money we recover or from a separate amount ordered by a court. If we’re defending a foreclosure, we may agree on a discounted hourly or flat rate. Either way, we’ll walk through the numbers before you sign anything.

Yes. If your mortgage company misapplies payments, adds junk fees, or mishandles escrow, we can help. We can file a lawsuit under RESPA and state consumer-protection laws. This can help us fix the problem before foreclosure becomes a problems. The sooner you call, the easier it is to stop the spiral.

No. I’m admitted in Washington, DC, Maryland, and federal courts nationwide. If your issue is fit for federal court, I can take the case nationwide. If it belongs in another state court where I am not admitted, I’ll connect you with a trusted local lawyer at no cost to you.

We schedule a 25-minute call. During the call, you can walk me through what’s happening. I’ll ask a few clarifying questions and outline your options. No pressure and no legal jargon. If we both decide it’s a good fit, you’ll send key documents for a deeper review before either of us signs on the dotted line.

Plan on a few intense sessions of work:

  • Collect documents
  • Answer written questions,
  • Join calls or hearings occasionally.

After that, we handle the day-to-day grind.

Many consumer cases settle in 6 to 18 months without going to trial. But timing varies based on the court’s schedule and the other party’s strategies. Whatever the pace, we’ll keep you updated and push for the fastest fair outcome possible
