Why Johnson Mark May Be Contacting You
A creditor or debt owner hires Johnson Mark to collect an account, often after other collection efforts did not resolve it. The firm's site does not name its clients or the kinds of debts it handles, so the creditor named in its letter or court papers is what tells you where the account came from. Contact from a collection law firm can mean a demand letter, a call from its customer care staff, or a lawsuit.
The firm lists (888) 599-6333 for account questions, with Mountain Time hours on weekdays and Saturday mornings, and says disputes can be sent in writing to its mailing address or by email.
How to Check a Debt Johnson Mark Says You Owe
With a law firm, the most important question is whether a case has been filed. If you have been served, the court's deadline controls, not the validation period.
- Look for court papers. If you received a citation or summons, calendar the answer deadline right away. Our debt lawsuit questions explain how answers work in Texas courts.
- Read the validation notice. Even a law firm must send one with the creditor's name and an itemized balance (15 U.S.C. § 1692g; 12 C.F.R. § 1006.34). It must not overshadow or contradict your dispute rights.
- Dispute in writing within the validation period. Ask for the signed agreement or account statements, the charge-off figures, and, if the plaintiff is a debt buyer, the documents showing it bought your account.
- Confirm the client. Ask whether the original creditor or a later buyer owns the debt.
- Check the dates. In Texas, most debt suits must be filed within four years (Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code § 16.004), and debt buyers may not sue on time-barred consumer debt (Tex. Fin. Code § 392.307). Utah and other states have their own periods.
What Johnson Mark Can and Can't Do
Lawyers who regularly collect consumer debts, including through litigation, are "debt collectors" under the FDCPA (Heintz v. Jenkins, 514 U.S. 291 (1995)).
- A letter on law firm letterhead may not suggest a lawyer has reviewed your file if none has (15 U.S.C. § 1692e(3)).
- It may not sue on a consumer debt in a court far from you; it must file where you signed the contract or where you live (15 U.S.C. § 1692i).
- It may not threaten a lawsuit the client has not authorized or does not intend to file (15 U.S.C. § 1692e(5)).
- After a judgment, collection still depends on state law; Texas protects a homestead, many personal belongings and wages from creditors on ordinary consumer debts.

We Sue Debt Collectors That Break the FDCPA
Texas Debt Law files Fair Debt Collection Practices Act lawsuits against debt collectors in federal court for consumers in Texas, California, Illinois, Georgia and Colorado. If Johnson Mark or anyone collecting for it harassed you, misstated what you owe, threatened action it could not take, or told others about your debt, you may have a claim. A court can order a collector that violated the FDCPA to pay your actual damages, up to $1,000 in additional statutory damages, and your attorney's fees and costs (15 U.S.C. § 1692k(a)). An FDCPA claim generally must be filed within one year of the violation (§ 1692k(d)), so keep your letters, call logs, voicemails and screenshots, and talk to us early. Texas residents may also have claims under the Texas Debt Collection Act. Learn more from our FDCPA attorneys.
