We have provided credit counseling agencies, debt settlement companies and their related marketers, processors, and service providers with legal representation.
Our firm works with both long-established companies and start-up companies that provide credit counseling services, debt management plan services, debt negotiation services, as well as those creating new products for consumers in need.
Our work principally involves a combination of proactive counseling and aggressive defense to help ensure compliance with the myriad applicable federal and state laws and regulations, plus assistance and advocacy in helping clients get licensed, registers or otherwise approved by various regulators.
We also provide defense of federal and state enforcement actions - especially actions by the Federal Trade Commission, Internal Revenue Service, state attorneys general and other state regulators - as well as in private class action litigation.
Our work includes:
- reviewing marketing materials, such as client contracts, scripts, advertisements, Web sites and infomercials, and
- assessing, obtaining and maintaining state laws compliance, including debt adjusting licenses, state regulatory examinations and compliance audits.
The laws and regulations concerning credit counseling and debt settlement are complex and ever changing. We are dedicated to working closely with federal and state regulators and staying abreast of the changing federal and state laws and regulations.
