Who Is Singer Weissman?
Singer Weissman is a creditors' rights and debt collection law firm in Tampa, Florida. Its website says it was "formerly known as O&L Law Group" and that it specializes in representing creditors in the State of Florida. The firm lists attorneys Richard Weissman and Jonathan Singer and an office at 5701 East Hillsborough Avenue, Suite 1231, in Tampa.
The site states that the firm "is a debt collector" under the FDCPA and displays an RMA certification number (a credential issued by the Receivables Management Association International, the debt-buying industry's trade group). We did not find a CFPB enforcement action against Singer Weissman or O&L Law Group.
Why Singer Weissman May Be Contacting You
The firm describes its clients as local, regional and national creditors, but it does not list them. A letter or lawsuit from Singer Weissman, or older paperwork under the O&L Law Group name, usually means a creditor or debt owner has hired the firm to collect a consumer account in Florida. If you now live in Texas, the account may date from when you lived in Florida.
The name change matters. If you are tracking an older O&L Law Group case or letter, the same firm may now be writing under the Singer Weissman name.
How to Check a Debt Singer Weissman Says You Owe
- Read the validation notice carefully, which must identify the current creditor, itemize the balance and set out a dispute deadline (15 U.S.C. § 1692g; 12 C.F.R. § 1006.34).
- Dispute in writing within that period and ask for the original creditor's name, the account documents and, if the account was sold, proof of the transfer.
- Confirm who owns the debt now, especially if the letter names a company you never dealt with.
- Look up any court case. If the firm says you were sued, check the county clerk's docket for a case number and judgment date.
- Check the age of the debt. Texas generally gives a creditor four years to sue (Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code § 16.004), and debt buyers may not sue on time-barred consumer debt (Tex. Fin. Code § 392.307). Florida's deadlines differ, and a judgment is a separate matter.
What Singer Weissman Can and Can't Do
A law firm that regularly collects consumer debts is a "debt collector" under the FDCPA (Heintz v. Jenkins, 514 U.S. 291 (1995)). In practice:
- It may not misrepresent the amount or legal status of the debt, such as calling a debt "judgment" when no judgment exists (15 U.S.C. § 1692e(2)).
- It must stop collecting a disputed debt until it mails verification (15 U.S.C. § 1692g(b)).
- Once it knows you have a lawyer, it generally must deal with your lawyer instead of you (15 U.S.C. § 1692c(a)(2)).
- It may not contact you more than the Regulation F call limits allow; see our note on call, text and email limits.
