Edit my "Spanish Greeting" for spanish-speaking clients

I do mortgage modifications for a law firm for a living, and sometimes my clients speak only spanish and I need to make sure my greeting is correct.

"Buenos dias.. Me llamo ___________, y yo llamo de Sanders Law Offices. Entiendo que buscas alguna ayuda con tus pagos de la hipoteca, verdad? De que estado llamas? (If a qualifying state, I say..) Bueno, te podemos ayudar. Primero, debo preguntarle unas pocas preguntas para aseguarse de que califica para la ayuda.

Primero, quien es el principal prestatario?

...and then i ask a series of questions that I don't feel like typing, but I'm pretty sure are correct. Just need some improvements on my greeting. Thanks!

This is how I would say it...

"Buenos dias.. Me llamo ___________, y (le estoy llamando) de (las oficinas de )Sanders Law . Entiendo que usted esta buscando ayuda con sus pagos de la hipoteca, correcto? De que estado esta llamando? (If a qualifying state, I say..) Bueno, le podemos ayudar. Primero, debo hacerle unas preguntas para aseguarme de que usted califica o qualifica para la ayuda.

With respect, should there not be an accent on está buscando - FELIZ77, Jul 8, 2011
FELIZ77, you are correct! I am used to not be able to type accents on certain webs that I keep forgeting that I do have the option here. Thanks for correcting me! - kclu787, Jul 8, 2011
Tienes razón, Feliz. Every "está" in there needs an accent. Also @ Kclu: aseguRarme*; cualifica* vs "qualifica" (but you shouldn't need both "califica"and "cualifica" because they mean "qualify"...it would be redundant - Goldie_Miel, Jul 8, 2011
