Johnson Mark LLC Mean, nasty, trickery, Bully’s! Sandy Utah

We have always paid our bills, when the economy crashed, so did we. I have never been contacted by a debt collector, or an attorney’s office about a bill. Until I was contacted by Johnson Marks Law offices. I was not familiar with the law (Fair Credit Act). I did not have the money to hire an attorney. They intimidated and scared me so much that I started paying on 3 accounts, and paid off one.  I tried to get them to work with me and they wouldn’t. Recently they garnished our checking account. We had no notice of it.  They took every penny that we had. There were pending transactions that had not cleared yet, we ended up with 8 NSF fees. Is it really legal to garnish a checking account and take every penny out of it? Leaving the person in the hole? So they are not able to buy necessities? We have 2 dependents at home.  If it is legal, it’s morally wrong.

 I asked several times if the debts were still able to sue on, I was told by Corie at Johnson Marks that they were. (Why would I ever trust anything that Johnson Mark said).  Much later in the game, I asked Corie to send me a list of accounts that we had with them, she asked for my email address and I gave it to her. She never sent them. I called Johnson Marks and asked them if they could please not call me, and gave them my husband’s cells phone number to contact. The person on the phone said that that can contact me whenever they want. They will put my husband’s cell phone # on the account, but if they want to call me they will. The person that I was speaking with knew that they had just garnished our account and he asked me three times for money. Also when I started paying the first account, I was never told that they would put a lien on our house, but they did.

We never purchased anything that we intended not to pay. We have always paid our bills, we have had a horrible couple of years and got behind. We were just starting to get back on our feet.  They have knocked us back down to almost being homeless. I could go on and on about the intimidation and scare tactics that they used on me. I know that we owe the money, the one account that I was supposed to be getting a deal on, and paid off, I actually paid more than I owed on it. How come they are allowed to do this?

I know that I should have done my homework much earlier than I did. I’m still learning things. I’m just shocked that they are able to behave that way. I wonder if bill collectors are paid commission, and if they are when they do get their commission and spend it, do they realize that someone is going with necessities.
