No he doesn't.
I'll say the same to you. You claim to have a "lawyer" who will help you in court, when any lawyer would tell you the interest rates you are charging are illegal, so you won't have a valid contract anyway. Doesn't make sense, and when it doesn't make sense, chances are it's not true.
It's so funny how his "friend" would be willing to help him for such little cases. perhaps it is a very bad, unemployed lawyer
How come the ID was not given to escrow, and escrow would release the ID if loaner defaults? I know it's risky like that, and the ID might be fake - but in my opinion that would be more safe for i3lome.
