I frequently have pro se patrons come to the library expecting their problem to be something they can handle only to be quickly overwhelmed when they start reading. It would be nice if there were more clinics where they could go and get help at understanding what they're reading, but as a librarian, I can't explain, I can only help them find what they're looking for. David,

This is the kind of "advice" lawyers and the Bar have been giving the public for years in an attempt to kill off Self Help law. Loan modification seems to be to be exactly the sort of transaction that most consumers can handle on their own -- especially with a bit of Self Help information. At the very least, please add a link above to your prior post on Loan Modification Self Help resources -- http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/shlep/2009/06/07/foreclosure-self-help-a-hot-topic-in-legal-self-help/ -- and maybe seek more links, or spell out specific information on Loan Modification.
