Who Is Schuerger Law Group?
Schuerger Law Group (SLG) is a debt collection law firm at 1001 Kingsmill Parkway in Columbus, Ohio. The National Creditors Bar Association directory lists the same address under the name Law Offices of Robert Schuerger Co., LPA, links to the Schuerger Law Group website, and describes the firm as a "creditor rights firm" that is "nationally licensed." That listing says the firm's lawyers are also licensed in Michigan and New York.
SLG's website includes state-specific debt collector notices for consumers in California, Colorado, the District of Columbia, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New York City and other places. It lists a local office in Westminster, Colorado, says it is licensed as a collection agency by the Minnesota Department of Commerce, and gives a California license number. We did not find a CFPB enforcement action against Schuerger Law Group or the Law Offices of Robert A. Schuerger Co., LPA.
Why Schuerger Law Group May Be Contacting You
The firm's website does not name its clients or the kinds of debts it collects. Its site states that information from consumers will be used to collect a debt and that "this information is from a debt collector." With disclosures aimed at consumers in so many states, a letter from SLG could reach you wherever you live, and it may concern an account that a creditor, a government agency or a debt owner referred to the firm. Check that the letter names Schuerger Law Group or the Law Offices of Robert A. Schuerger Co., LPA, and compare its contact details with the firm's website before you pay.
How to Check a Debt Schuerger Law Group Says You Owe
- Read the validation notice for the creditor, the itemized balance and your dispute deadline (15 U.S.C. § 1692g; 12 C.F.R. § 1006.34). SLG's own D.C. notice lists the records consumers there may request, which are a good checklist anywhere: the original and current creditor, the last account number, the signed contract, the date the debt arose, the last payment date and an itemization.
- Dispute in writing within the validation period and ask for those documents.
- Ask who owns the debt and whether SLG is collecting for the original creditor or a later owner.
- Check the amount against your own statements, including any interest or fees added after default.
- Check the dates. Texas generally allows four years to sue on a consumer debt (Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code § 16.004), and debt buyers may not sue on time-barred debt (Tex. Fin. Code § 392.307). Other states differ, and some government debts follow separate federal rules; see our note on federal student loan collections.
What Schuerger Law Group 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)). For a multistate collection firm:
- It may not imply that an attorney reviewed your account when none did (15 U.S.C. § 1692e(3)).
- It may not sue you outside the county where you live or signed the contract (15 U.S.C. § 1692i).
- It may not call you at inconvenient times, generally before 8 a.m. or after 9 p.m. (15 U.S.C. § 1692c(a)(1)).
- It must respect a written request to stop communicating, with limited exceptions (15 U.S.C. § 1692c(c)).

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 Schuerger Law Group 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.
