There is more to this than meets the eye -- in other words, you lost the house for other reasons. Try contacting the Washington State Dept of Banking and see if you can file a complaint against your mortgage servicer.
In terms of hiring private counsel, try www.attorneypages.com and check his or her record at the Washington State Bar.
