Can you help me file a No Fee Lawsuit against Collins Asset Group LLC – CAG?

Absolutely. Here are some Sample Cases

Complaints against Collins Asset Group commonly cite problems resulting from disputes about the validity of debts; the accuracy of information reported to credit reporting agencies; and attempting to collect time-barred debts and loans that have been dismissed. In April 2017, a complainant indicated he had co-signed an auto loan for his granddaughter 6 years previously. His granddaughter defaulted on the loan, and the vehicle was repossessed. The complainant had received a bill, and he had sent “a check for a couple of hundred dollars explaining…he was retired and living on Social Security.” The original creditor sent “the check back and said the… loan was” written off. Subsequently, CAG sent him a collection letter requesting that he “pay the amount due of $7,301.36.” The complainant alleged that CAG is engaged in “digging up old loans on older people and scaring them into paying loans that were dropped.”

In response, Collins Asset Group indicated they had “purchased the account in question” in 2014; had “sent a validation letter”; and had spoken to the complainant and agreed to discuss establishing a $100-per-month payment plan. CAG stated that despite several attempts to implement the payment plan, they had not received any payments from the complainant. In 2017, CAG re-established contact with the complainant. Collins Asset Group was informed that the complainant had received notification that the loan had been dismissed, and subsequently requested that the complainant contact them and submit proof that he was no longer responsible for the debt.

The complainant rejected the attempted resolution, indicating the entire loan communication process—including the termination of the loan—occurred 6 years previously, and he no longer had any of the paperwork. In addition, he stated that CAG purchased the loan; therefore, they should be responsible for researching the loan history. The complainant concluded by accusing Collins Asset Group of “just trying to make a profit …by scamming people into putting money into …their pocket” by trying to collect loans that have been written off.

Additional consumer protection laws include the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) and the Consumer Financial Protection Act (CFPA).
