Debt collection company Midland Funding LLC (through their attorneys and fellow debt collectors Mann Bracken LLP) has agreed to dismiss a debt collection lawsuit filed against my client in Orange County Superior Court. The agreement to dismiss came days before their responses to our discovery requests were due.
Responding to complaints and serving written discovery is the best way to combat these debt collection lawsuits. Often debt collectors and their debt collection law firms won't want to respond, but in the event they do respond, you get to see what sort of actual documentation they have to support their debt collection claims.
If you are served with a summons and complaint, please consult immediately with a consumer attorney. California residents can contact me at my office for a free consultation via email at psmith@paulsmithlaw.com or telephone at 858-679-3396. Residents of other states can visit the Natioanl Association of Consumer Advocates to locate an attorney in your state.
