We recently received a letter from Brachfeld & Associates trying to collect on a debt and saying if we didn't pay their "client" will be filing a lawsuit against us. Our debts are protected right now under bankruptcy and we had given that information to *every* single one of our debtors (sometimes multiple times to especially retarded ones such as Sam's Club). So we called this "puppy mill" of a lawyer firm (If they even *are* a legitimate lawyer firm, seems more like a collection agency masquerading as one).
After calling the number in the letter they couldn't even *find* our name or information... Ok... They seemed extremely disorganized and the person seemed to be in a loud "call center".. Not typical of any lawyer office. We then were tranferred to another lady who also kept thinking we were someone else in NY under a different name, even after I repeated several times that was not us and I was calling from Wisconsin on a letter addressed to us by them. The ditzy person didn't seem to understand much English and told us to "disregard letters not addressed to us".. I told her yet again that the letter *WAS* addressed to the correct person and gave her the information 2-3 times at least.
Then she tranferred us to the California office, who refused to speak with me (Because they wanted to talk to my "husband") whom I handed the phone to so he could take his turn telling them to get the hell lost. We told them we are under bankruptcy protection and to remove us from their mailing list, etc. They got REALLY snobby and said "Oh, well how are WE supposed to know that?!" We told them clearly that we had informed *every single one* of our debtors that we are under bankruptcy protection and they have no rights to contact us as our petition is already filed. These jerks then wanted *proof* of this in a letter. Oh i'll be sending them a nice scathing letter alright... Along with my CEASE AND DESIST notice (with mail tracking and return receipt) so I know these low lifes got the info and will get lost. Stay away from this fake stupid lawfirm full of idiots. THEY ARE NOTHING MORE THAN A BOILER ROOM FOR A COLLECTION AGENCY!!!
Also look up "Zwicker and Assoc." in Repoff report... It seems there are multiple companies trying to threaten people and collect on null debts!
