Wearing Wires: A Series On Joe Badalamenti Owner of Five Brothers

November 7, 2013

This is the first in a Multi Part Series on Wires worn during conversations with Joe Badalamenti, owner of Five Brothers; with Tom Kalas Joe Badalamenti’s lawyer and multiple Five Brothers employees.

This is the first set of Wires dealing with the first Member of the National Association of Mortgage Field Services which we are going to profile along with hundreds of phone calls. We are currently cleaning up hundreds of hours of wire we have received from deployed assets across the United States. Should be a Happy New Year, ‘eh?!

Before You Go ...

Foreclosurepedia exists because readers, workers, and advocates understand that protecting Labor in the mortgage field services industry requires independence, persistence, and resources. We do not answer to servicers, hedge funds, or corporate trade groups; our accountability is to the Field Service Technicians, Inspectors and administrative personnel whose livelihoods are too often treated as expendable. Donations are what allow us to investigate quietly buried contract changes, expose abusive labor practices, and publish work that would otherwise never see the light of day. Every contribution helps keep our reporting free from industry pressure and focused squarely on defending labor standards, fair pay, and basic dignity in the foreclosure ecosystem. If you believe this work matters, your support is not symbolic—it is the reason Foreclosurepedia can continue to stand between Labor and a system that routinely exploits it.
