Smith Gromann and Davidson, P.A. must really be blood thirsty for money. I signed up with them for a loan modification in an attempt to save my house. They were supposed to draft my checking account for the first payment on a Friday but tried to take the money out before then on Wednesday causing my account to be overdrawn. I immediately got a call from a very rude man who identified himself as Dale Harges from The Debt Advocacy Center. He threatened me by telling me I committed a Federal offense by passing a bad check over State lines. This A-hole continued to belittle me and threatened to call the local cops and my employer if I didnt pay right them. I wanted to cancel but was threatened again that they would put a lien on my house.


 


Then I find out that this LAW FIRM is actually the DebtAdvocacyCenter in disguise. The telephone number on the Smith, Gromann and Davidson website (866-794-8994) and a different telephone number listed for The Debt Advocacy Center (866-619-4797) on the Better Business Bureau is answered by the same person, Ian Rich, (maybe a phony name). The address of the DebtAdvocacyCenter in Florida is the same as for Smith, Gromann and Davidson, P.A. (

14000 Military Dr, Suite 200Delray Beach
, florida).  Watch them change this real quick.


 

The Better Business Bureau shows that The Debt Advocacy Center has an F rating. They received 32 serious complaints. They have a Cease and Desist from Colorado. Its obvious why they are trying to deceive the public and call themselves a LAW FIRM. Edward J. Davidson shows on the BBB website as the person who is head of Debt Advocacy. The retainer I signed showed him as the Managing Partner of Smith Gromann and Davidson. If Davidson is a lawyer like he claims, how in the heck can he get away with this. DONT ANSWER-HANG UP-RUN AWAY

POSTED: Monday, November 09, 2009

Smith, Gromann and Davidson is a lawfirm that specializes in various debtors' rights issues, including loan modifications.  We have been defamed in a number of complaints in the so called rip off report.  First, none are true either in their complaints  or in their allegations related to the relationship between the lawfirm and the Debt Advocacy Center.

We have requested that the complainants contact us directly to discuss their issues but they refuse to identify themselves.

Sites like the rip off report are irresponsible and often guilty of extortion.
Before believing anything on this report we would suggest that you review:

Seomozorg/blog/chris-bennet-on

Basically, any competitor, disgruntled employee or client whose complaint was not given credence by the Attorney's Disciplinary Committee can use the rip off report to cause damage to which the firm cannot respond.
