Bleier v. Michael Harrison Attorney at Law
Filed: March 6, 2018 ◆§ 1:18cv1392
According to a lawsuit, a Michael Harrison Attorney at Law employee misinformed the plaintiff that debt disputes could only be submitted in writing.
New York
Michael Harrison Attorney at Law is the defendant in a proposed class action case filed by a New York consumer who claims that when she called the defendant in July 2017 to ask about a supposed debt, she was informed that she must send in a written dispute if she disagreed with the account balance. The lawsuit argues it was unlawful of the defendant to not accept the plaintiff’s debt dispute over the phone, as the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA) allows for a consumer to orally dispute a debt.
“[The plaintiff] was misled into believing that there was no way to dispute this debt over the phone,” the case claims.
