I too have become familiar with this company. Intially they called me relentlessly at work. I wrote to them disputing the claim that was against me spelling out the fact that my son was on Medicaid and what my insurance did not cover Medicaid did, and that the doctor had agreed to this since he was the one that encouraged me to get my son on Medicaid. The next thing I know I am getting a letter from the courts, that I answered. I did not hear anything more until I went to refinance my home. I found that the company had placed a lien on my home. I called Zarzaur & Schwartz and spoke to someone who offered no help just tried to talk over me. So I wrote to the director of the Dr's office. I received a call from the Dr's office advising me that they would never put a lien on my home and they would never authorize anyone to do such a thing. They were going to check this out and in the interm could I send to them proof that I had faxed to them my son's medicaid card number. I not only sent this proof but the letters their Dr and case worker had sent to Medicaid on my son's behalf. After a week of not hearing anything I called and was told I would get a letter. Well because this was all of the information they wanted to give me I called the rep back at Zarzaur & Schartwz, she informed me they were giving me a 1200.00 credit on the bill what they think Medicaid would have paid had they filed, oh I missed somehting, intially they stated they did not take Medicaid??? When I asked to receive a detailed listing of what they had billed me for as I did when they had first contacted me I was told again they do not have this information?? So how do they know what I supposedly owe? I then called the Dr's office back which by the way the name of this office is Alabama Pyschiatric Services aka APS. I asked for the same information and was told that I would get a letter, that they did not have the detail of my billing records?? I also found out from the court where they won the civil suit that the reason they won was they had sent my response back to me stating I had not signed it, I have a copy of this in my files, and I told the clerk yes I did sign it and send it back. I also had the letter that they sent originally stating I needed to sign it?? I have hired an attorney as I feel there is some fraud going on with the Dr's office and with these attorneys. I feel it is strange that I requested the detailed billing and can not receive it and disputed the claim twice once with the attorney's and once with the court but no one got my letters?? I have hired an attorney and I can not tell you how happy I am that I found this site and was able to see that I am not the only one this has happened to. I beleive there are more and wonder if calling Fox 6 on your side would bring more of us out in the open?? I am leaving my email address in this forum as I would like to hear from others who have had similiar situations with this law office. Oh by the way intially my bill was 7100.00, after applying the medicaid credit it went up to 9800.00??? Pretty good interest for 1 week huh???

They cannot sue you

AUTHOR: Charles - (USA)

POSTED: Thursday, October 08, 2009

If you owe money to a creditor,   & If It Is past 7 years old.   They cannot sue you.   If they do you can sue them,  for emitional damange.   But that Is what collection agencies & lawyers offices are doing to people.

The collection agencie sends,  the account to scare people into paying It.   Or they will be taken to court.   After what I have learned,   they cannot sue you after 7 years.

Everything Is so crooked these days,   the lawyers office knows they cannot sue people If It Is past 7 years.   But they go ahead & do It anyways.

The federal trade commision needs to be made aware,  of what they are doing.    But collection agencies have been sued nurmouse times.   And paid thousands of dollars In fines.

But they just continue mistreating & abusing people.  If they take you to court get a lawyer,  & sue them.   These collection agencies are trying to collect on old debts.
