I read the report filed by Nancy in Clermont, FL. I have received a letter from this firm to collect a debt. I was suspicious when Nancy said it was a collector, not a law firm when the letter actually says they are lawyers, so I called the number to the office and they say they are lawyers in their voice message, and found a website: www.hhllaw.com, but the location of that firm is New Jersey.

I wonder if they are the same company and if Nancy has any information on that. I don't plan on responding because they say in the letter that "The attached stipulation is a proposal of settlement only. The terms are negotiable...." but it looks like a lawsuit filing.

I hope I will hear from somebody out there who may have had experience with this firm/ripoff (?).

The first thing you should do is always request written validation of the debt, per your rights under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act....

Send this via Registered Mail with Return Receipt and state:

Per the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act I am requesting validation of this alleged debt...

Do NOT sign your name on the letter....They might pull off the signature and put it on a forged document to use against you.

You will know for sure if they are filing a lawsuit if they actually serve you papers for a a court appearance. If they do this, DO NOT be a no show...If you fail to show up, they will win a default judgment against you.

From Bud Hibbs:

I am being sued by Northstar Capital Acquisition for old debt. If the debt is mine I certainly will work out a payment with them as I am trying to clean up my credit history, but my complaint is they have been too overly aggressive in pursuing this matter. I have a scheduled non-jury trial on 12/14. The amount they are suing me for is 1100.00 plus 300.00 in interest. The letters I have received clearly states my account has not been reviewed by an attorney, but an assistant from the alleged law firm of Hayt, Hayt, & Landau, who began calling me in July of this year. I ignored the calls because I honestly did not recognize the debt and was therefore served a summons in September. I responded through the court asking them to cease contacting me and that I would reach the bank and try to resolve this on my own. The phone calls continue to come even after I answered the summons and after I received the post card indicating it will go to trial. Is this legal and how should I proceed. Are they even legal? From my research online, I understand that New York and Pennsylvania have or had class action lawsuits against the collection/law firm Hayt, Hayt, & Landau that is representing Northstar Capital Acquisition. Again, how should I proceed on this?
