I sent the attorney a dispute within 30 days. the attorney sent 2 more collection letters, and then nothing for the last 6 months. I've never received anything from Sherman, and I never sent Sherman anything directly because I was under the impression that I should go thru the attorney. Now I wish I HAD sent a dispute directly to sherman in that 30 days. (didnt know any better back then.) I have not been served anything yet. Is it even worth it to send Sherman a validation request at this point? Or should I take the postition that I DID send them validation via their attorneys and start outlining the violations they are both responsible for? I was considering mediation if the fees aren't too high and Sherman is willing to settle for $500 or less + deletion. what do ya think?
