How can I find out if a company actually has Attorneys on it's staff and is licensed to practice law? i.e. XYZ Company, Attorneys at Law is on the letter-head.

Trust me, tell them you are filing complaints with the NJ Attorney General, the Attorney General in your state, and the FTC (who has already sued them, and they are under a C&D in several states). If you don't trust me, search this site and the other credit message boards and the internet. Their address is the same as National Check Control. National Check Control is in deep doo doo. Tell them get lost, the account isn't yours, and if you ever hear from them again, or they put anything on your credit report, you will sue them from here to kingdom come. Also, tell them you are contacting the attorneys who have recently filed a class action against them, and that you intend to join that action. Don't worry about SOL. It's irrelevant. quote: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Originally posted by BostnYnkee The name of the Attorney's offices are: JBC & Associates, P.C. Located in Boomfield NJ with offices in CA, NY and MA. What are the class actions that are going on? I just find it hard to believe that after no contact at all, they can come after me 12 years later for a check! It seems logical that there would be a statute of limitations on collecting for this, since even rapes & child molestation have statute of limitations of less than 12 years! The statute of limitations for judgements in this state is only 10 yrs. SOL for other things as low as 3 & 4 years. The check was written in MA, I now live in NC. They listed NC general statutes in their letter, so I assume they are using NC as the state laws they are going by. Thank you for any and all help! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- _______________________ THE END ** *** ** LB 59 """""""""```~~~```'"""""""""
Re: Re: Re: Question: CA posing as Law Firm Thx lb59. I recently got a letter from them regarding a check. I haven't written a check in years...(Visa debit card holder). I want to sue them for not being licensed to collect in this state and not being licensed to practice law in this state (I'm not in NJ). I wonder if they are really Attorneys though since that's what's in their letter head...Attorneys at Law. I'm 2 for 2 on my suits so I'm "trigger happy" when it comes to filing for FDCPA and FCRA violations.
Re: Re: Re: Question: CA posing as Law Firm Someone else here dealing with them: http://consumers.creditnet.com/stra...4&highlight=JBC More info on them: http://www.creditboards.com/phpBB2/...light=jbc#10140 Really, you can trust what I say - ask around. Posted: Tue Apr 15, 2003 11:24 am Post subject: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If you have been a victim of NCC or their aliases, or have copies of dunning letters, phone recordings, etc, Here is the law firm currently pursuing them: http://www.ademilaw.com/cases/nationalcheckcontrol.php There are already judgements against this company. The reasoning behind seizing the Western Union payments is that is their lifeblood. Stopping that cash flow would strangle Hutchins & friends. -Radi8[/url] THE END ** *** ** LB 59 """""""""```~~~```'"""""""""
Re: Re: Re: Re: Question: CA posing as Law Firm If you can not come up with a valid bar number for an attorney with the firm then you should also contact the US Postal Service Inspector General seeing as this would also make them guilty of mail fraud! Michael
