Litigation

  • Debt Collection – flat fee legal services
    • Defense against creditor lawsuits in court.
    • Respond to court documents/summons/complaints.
    • Appear in court, argue your case, settle your dispute or debt – avoid judgments, or mitigate the costs and damages as best as possible.
    • Ghost writing of Answers for Pro Se Defendants and Pro Se support (where permitted by law)
    • Stop harassing calls and letters.
    • Negotiate and settle debt being sued in court matters to prevent judgments.
    • Avoid the ridiculous cost and damage done by hiring a debt settlement or debt repair company (don’t!).
    • Sue creditors who are violating FDCPA, FCRA, TCPA, and other state and federal consumer protection laws (not a flat fee service, but based on a per-case basis, often we can get the underlying debt waived if there is evidence of a violation of one of these, contact for more info.)
  • Breach of Contract
    • Real Estate buy/sell purchase agreements.
    • Real Estate Agent/Broker fiduciary breaches.
    • Landlord/Tenant contract disputes.
  • Judgments
  • Privacy-related issues, including Defamation and other civil torts
  • Mechanics’ Liens; Litigation of disputes between contractors and property owners.
    • If you are a contractor and you performed work on a house that is currently for sale, ask about options where you pay nothing, all fees paid out of closing by the owner.
  • Lis Pendens (a fast filing to prevent a property from selling when a bill is owed on work performed, for instance).
  • Note: Time to act in litigation is often very limited. To ensure you don’t miss out on your rights, contact us right away if you are facing any of these issues. Complaints in court have a thirty day window to respond, mechanics’ liens must be filed within 3 months of the last service date – the clocks are ticking.
  • Consultation:
    • Considering litigation or having been sued and want to consult? We’ve litigated thousands of cases in many jurisdictions and can consult with you on steps, whether you can handle the case pro se (on your own), how difficult the issues are to navigate, what to expect, what we know of the other law firm and their expectations, and other issues.
    • Considering hiring a debt consolidation, debt repair, or debt settlement company? You’re about to spend $20k or more, whether you realize it or not – ask a few questions first. The reality might change your mind or at least prepare you with what to ask for to defend against the many unscrupulous ones out there (many hide behind what sound like law firm names but are not real law firms, for instance). Plus, how to file a complaint against a debt repair org that has treated you unethically.

Contracts

  • Drafting custom and complex contracts.
  • Reviewing contracts and agreements for individuals or businesses.
  • Litigation of breached Contracts, whether explicit or implicit/quasi.
  • Determination of damages.
  • Advice on how to proceed with a potential breach situation.

We currently operate in several states and federal jurisdictions and are expanding – contact us to find out if we can help you. We also highly suggest connecting with your local legal aid to see if you qualify for free or “low bono” legal aid, and if you are facing many debts in litigation, you may want to search for a bankruptcy attorney for a consultation (we do not do bankruptcy and feel it would be unethical for us to refer to someone who does – this should be done independently for your own protection).
