Need help verifying the legitimacy of a Lender

[Sage Fradley]

I have been approached by Michael Galdis Adamez a member of bigger pockets through the forum.  All seem honky dory but I have a bit of hesitation. I am trying to get a Cash out refi and he seems like he will be able to get me a good rate and the amount I am looking for. I am new and haven't had to get a traditional mortgage yet. I need to know ways I can verify that this is a real person and not a scam.
