Posted by James | June 07, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Bankruptcy & Debt

CAN DO ATTITUDE

In December 2016, a collection agency started garnishing my wages illegally and continued to do so for several months. I was never served papers of any kind plus the debt was not mine. It belonged to my wife. Back in 2008, my wife incurred the debt. In 2012, I filed bankruptcy. I didn't include the o...riginal debtor in my petition for bankruptcy, because I was unaware that I owed them money. Had I known I would have simply included them in the bankruptcy, and that would have been the end of the matter. Since the original debtor nor the collection agency never informed me that I was responsible for my wife's debt. They essentially forfeited their right to come after me after my bankruptcy was closed and discharged. But they did anyway. This was a violation of the bankruptcy code. The federal bankruptcy court agreed and awarded over 65,000 in my case. Thanks to Sean and his team, I am feeling Damn good. If you want to feel good too then Hire Sean Payne!!

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
