From Knowledge to Action: Defending Clients in Collections Disputes

When creditors or debt buyers file a lawsuit in Brooklyn, defendants are typically served with a summons and complaint. Strict deadlines apply for filing a response, and failing to answer can result in a default judgment. With a judgment in place, creditors may pursue garnishment or bank levies under New York law.

Common Collections Cases We Handle 

Our team evaluates each case individually and addresses the specific challenges presented by the type of debt involved. 

Some of the most frequent cases we represent include:

• Credit card balances transferred to third-party debt buyers
• Medical debt claims pursued by hospitals and collection firms
• Personal loan defaults, including those tied to local lenders
• Business-related debts impacting small business owners in Brooklyn

Each case requires careful review of documentation, timelines, and the creditor’s claims. By examining these details, we help clients respond to lawsuits in a way that considers both the legal and financial impact of the case.

Possible Legal Defenses in Collections Cases

Not all collection lawsuits are valid. Some claims may be based on incomplete records or debts that are too old to enforce. In other cases, plaintiffs may lack standing if they cannot prove ownership of the debt. Our team reviews these issues carefully and advises clients on available defense strategies.

If you have been served with a debt collection lawsuit in Brooklyn, do not wait to act. Usher Law Group provides guidance and representation to clients across the borough who are dealing with financial pressure and legal action from creditors.
