Im filing a complaint against Nationstar Mortgage (NSM) and their hired counsel XXXX XXXX XXXX , which is an inexperienced associate attorney for XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX.  Im currently in the middle of an active litigation case with NSM, XXXX XXXX has been attempting to mediate the grievances that I have with NSM. On a number of different occasions XXXX  advised me that the arguments being alleged in my lawsuit are outside of the statute of limitations and she encouraged me to dismiss my civil suit, I refused. Then she came back a few weeks later with a settlement offer from NSM, offering me $XXXX, in return I must dismiss the civil lawsuit, again I refused. 
On or aboutXX/XX/XXXX, XXXX requested that I complete a written offer of my own for which I would consider dismissing my lawsuit in return for a specific settlement amount from NSM.
On XX/XX/XXXX, I submitted a written settlement offer as well as I sent XXXX a full modification request for assistance package for review since my account has been forced into delinquency from NSM, errors. Since my loan is coded as litigation when I call NSM, Im directed to contact XXXX and the law office that she represents. I was also advised by all of NSM, personal on multiple occasions that all communications and requests must go through XXXX  and the law firm. This is the reason why I sent XXXX the request for modification assistance package along with my settlement demand letter for NSM, to review. On several separate occasions, I have requested XXXX to give me a status update on both the modification request documents as well as my settlement request for NSM. On several instances via email communications, XXXX led me to believe that my documents and requests were still under review. 
See XXXX email responses that were received via email when I requested updates:

Hi XXXX,  I have not heard back on the modification.  I will follow up with my client again on the status of the foreclosure and potential to modify the loan.
Thanks,

Hello, XXXX XXXX, Thank you for following up!  I had intended to call you this week to discuss.  I inadvertently misread the scheduling order and no continuance is needed as the deadlines are for XX/XX/XXXX instead of XX/XX/XXXX.  I followed up again this week conveying your desire to modify your loan and I am working towards a final resolution of this matter. I will be in touch next week.  Thank you for your cooperation. Best, XXXX XXXX
On XX/XX/XXXX, I received the text below from XXXX, basically attempting to extort me into agreeing to dismiss my civil lawsuit, in return for reviewing my loan for modification assistance and $XXXX. I might add that I submitted documentation for assistance as instructed by NSM, on XX/XX/XXXX, and NSM is refusing to review my FHA loan for assistance unless I accept $XXXX and dismiss my claims against them.
