Great lawyer and firm

I recently found myself being sued by a law firm who had no intention of working with me. The company they represent, Midland Funding is sneaky and makes it almost impossible to get a settlement. They try to get a default judgment so you pay 3 times the debt owed. Victor Wandres handled my case and i...s still in my corner until my credit report is properly reported. Paramount was a great choice as they are pros with this companys tactics and get the results!

Excellent service, Excellent Representative

Victor met all our needs and more. You can tell he has a passion for law and protecting consumer rights. He is very technical but has the ability to explain everything. And yes, we won!

Highly Recommend

I was unpleasantly surprised by a bank garnishment on payday, which resulted not only in all my husband's money for supporting our family being drained from his accounts, but also my minor son's earnings from his part time job. An unscrupulous attorney had obtained (using false information) a judgme...nt against me over five years ago. Even though I replied to the initial papers served by the courts, my request for proof of the debt was never answered, and a summary judgment was awarded to the plaintiff. The explanation on the paperwork led me to believe that my response would stop any further proceedings until proof of the validity of the debt was provided. I was wrong, and I was devastated that someone could just seize all our money in one fell swoop by waving an old court document around the bank's garnishment office. (Apparently Oklahoma law is very favorable to predatory debt collectors and their attorneys) I felt violated and became physically ill worrying about how we were going to pay our bills or even buy groceries, much less buy birthday gifts for two of our kids that month. I frantically began searching for answers and help, and that's when I found Victor R. Wandres on the Internet. Through our emails over a weekend and into the next week, sometimes even late at night, he helped guide me through the process of proving to the court that the money belonged to family other than me. He even encouraged me to focus on the issues that would help me win my case rather than frantically chasing after information that would be of no use in getting the money back. I learned more through this process than I can even begin to cover here, but know that there are attorneys who make their living by collecting on old junk debt, valid or not. There are few like Mr. Wandres who are there to help consumers, and I am grateful for his assistance. In my case, the judge ordered all the monies be refunded to the account owners. I don't believe the outcome would have been so favorable if it weren't for the help I received from Mr. Wandres. Just contact him BEFORE you try to handle things on your own and make a bigger mess like I did.

Great firm!

My wife and daughter were in a car accident and they took great of us through the process. We had issues with our car that would not have been resolved if it were not for their help. I would highly recommend them.

Paramount Law STOPPED Abusive Debt Collector

Paramount Law in Tulsa helped me stop harassment by an abusive debt collector. They filed a lawsuit under the FDCPA in Oklahoma Federal Court and the debt collector quickly settled, resulting in a check to me! I recommend Paramount Law for all of your consumer protection law needs in Oklahoma, espec...ially consumers being abused by debt collection companies.
