Why Bleecker Brodey & Andrews May Be Contacting You

The firm's website describes three practice areas:

  • Collections, using attorneys together with non-attorney account representatives;
  • Foreclosure and REO work for mortgage lenders enforcing delinquent loans, with foreclosure services in Indiana, Illinois and Kentucky;
  • Bankruptcy, where it represents creditors, including contesting the values debtors place on financed property.

So you may hear from the firm about a delinquent consumer account, a mortgage in or near foreclosure, or a car or other secured loan in your bankruptcy case. The firm offers online settlement and payment portals for accounts it handles.

How to Check a Debt Bleecker Brodey & Andrews Says You Owe

Your options differ a lot depending on whether this is a collection letter, a foreclosure or a bankruptcy matter.

  • For a collection letter, look for the validation notice and dispute in writing within the validation period (15 U.S.C. § 1692g; 12 C.F.R. § 1006.34). Ask for the original contract, the payment history and the name of the current owner.
  • For a mortgage, ask for a payoff and reinstatement figure and the loan's payment history, and contact the servicer about loss-mitigation options.
  • If you are in bankruptcy, let your bankruptcy attorney handle all contact; the automatic stay limits collection.
  • Verify the amount against your own records.
  • Consider limitations. For a Texas consumer, suits on most debts must generally be filed within four years (Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code § 16.004), and debt buyers cannot sue on time-barred consumer debt (Tex. Fin. Code § 392.307). Indiana and other states set different periods.

What Bleecker Brodey & Andrews Can and Can't Do

Lawyers who regularly collect consumer debts are "debt collectors" under the FDCPA (Heintz v. Jenkins, 514 U.S. 291 (1995)). The firm's website says its staff are trained on the FDCPA. Some foreclosure-only activity is treated differently under the statute.

  • It may not imply that an attorney has reviewed your account when none has (15 U.S.C. § 1692e(3)).
  • A collection suit must be brought where you live or signed the contract; a foreclosure must be filed where the property is (15 U.S.C. § 1692i).
  • It may not contact you directly once it knows you have a lawyer for the debt (15 U.S.C. § 1692c(a)(2)).
  • It may not misstate the amount or legal status of the debt (15 U.S.C. § 1692e(2)).
