Foreclosure law attorney David J. Stern has stepped away from all operations in a Plantation, Fla., company he founded. He will now concentrate on his law firm, a company statement said.

DJSP Enterprises Inc., which did work for Stern's law firm, announced Stern resigned as president and CEO and that it appointed Stephen J. Bernstein as chairman of the board, president and CEO. Bernstein served as interim chairman after Stern stepped down from that position earlier this year.

Stern's law firm and other foreclosure companies are under investigation by the Florida Attorney General's Office, which accuses them of submitting misleading or fabricated documents in foreclosure cases.
