Unifund CCR Partners, through their debt collection attorneys Lang, Richert, and Patch, has agreed to dismiss its collection lawsuit against my client approximately two weeks prior to trial. This lawsuit was filed in Imperial County Superior Court in El Centro in December of 2007.
Sometimes debt collectors will try to hang on to a lawsuit until trial approaches, but ultimately the result is usually the same. Very few of these cases actually go to trial because debt collector plaintiffs very rarely have the evidence and witnesses necessary to prove a debt collection case in a court of law.
If you are served with a summons and complaint, please consult with a consumer attorney to learn about your rights and obligations. Do not allow a default judgment to be entered against you. California residents can contact my office via telephone (858-679-3396) or email (psmith@paulsmithlaw.com) for a free consultation. Residents of other states should visit the National Association of Consumer Advocates website to locate an attorney in your state.
