Located in the prestigious Greenway Plaza, the firm specializes in defending consumers against debt lawsuits, often achieving results that eliminate interest and significantly reduce principal balances.

Specialized Debt Defense Services

The firm's primary mission is to fight back against creditors, banks, and debt collectors who use intimidation and litigation to collect debts. Their practice areas are tailored to this aggressive defense strategy:

• Credit Card Lawsuit Defense: Challenging the validity of credit card debts in court, often forcing dismissals when creditors cannot produce the necessary documentation.
• Judgment and Garnishment Defense: protecting clients who have already been sued, helping to vacate judgments and stop bank garnishments.
• Medical and Business Debt: Negotiating settlements for large medical bills and business loans that threaten a client's livelihood.
• Repossession Defense: fighting to keep clients in their vehicles by challenging the legality of repossession actions.
• Statute of Limitations: Identifying when a debt is too old to be legally collected and using this as a complete defense.
