You should first try submitting an administrative complaint with the New Jersey Department of Banking and/or Ohio Department of Banking.   Then, if you would like to sue (hire an attorney who specializes in mortgage related issues) and have him file the complaint.  You also have to consider it may not just be where you can sue, but the conflict of laws (i.e., if the contract was actually executed in Ohio, Ohio law may come in to play).
