    Received a letter today from Edelman, Combs, Latturner & Goodwin stating they are looking for the following cases that may apply to some people here:

    Bankruptcy debtors subjected to continued collection attempts on discharged debts

    Reporting debts discharged in bankruptcy to credit bureaus with a balance other than zero or with out noting included in bankruptcy

    Collection suits filed in IL by debt buyers after January 1, 2008 which do not attach an assignment naming the particular debtor, stating the effective date of the assignment, and stating what was paid foer the debt

    Cell phone debts being collected by debt buyers on their own (not through an attorney or agency) where a collection charge is added

    Attempts by anyone to sue or threaten suit on cell phone bills more than 2 years old. The statute of limitations is routinely disregarded by bad debt buyers

    Attempts by anyone to sue or threaten suit on retail installment contract or auto lease deficiencies that are more than four years old

    Persons who have obtained, from the same lender but not necessarily simutaneously, (a) payday loans and (b) other loans at 50% or greater insterest. The definition of a payday loan is over 36% interest and term of 120 days or less. IL only. We have a plantiff for Americash but are looking for others

    People who had their credit reports pulled for the purpose of collecting traffic and parking fines

    Hope this helps someone!

    They must have a huge staff. To do litigation on the scale they do it is tremendous.

    cell phone...

    Do you have a website or a telephone number for this firm? I search and get nothing. Will try again.

    Would this be only problems in their state?

    I don't think so. They specified when it was IL only. Check out the full case descriptions on their website to make sure.
