According to Dominion Law Associates’ website, “ DLA prides itself on providing outstanding service to its clients while maintaining the highest legal and ethical standards” However, according to its track record, Dominion Law Associates’ collection activities shed a much different light when analyzed under the FDCPA. The FDCPA has been around for almost 35 years. The FDCPA is a federal law that applies to every state. In other words, everyone is protected by the FDCPA. The FDCPA is essentially a laundry list of what debt collectors can and cannot do while collecting a debt, as well as things debt collectors must do while collecting a debt.

According to the Public Access to Court Electronic Records (PACER), Dominion Law Associates has been sued 23 times in the last 3 years for debt collection harassment. It does not get any better for Dominion Law Associates on the Better Business Bureau.

If Dominion Law Associates has harassed you over a debt, you may be entitled to money damages up to $1,000.00. Plus, the FDCPA has a fee-shift provision.

Hi Nick, I'm familiar with Dominion Law Associates, and I've helped other consumers having issues with them. However, your situation seems like an issue with a state court lawsuit, judgment, and garnishment. Please let me know what state you live in. I can then refer you to an attorney that's licensed in your state. I am state licensed in Illinois and in California. I also handle cases in federal courts in several states. Thanks, Mike

Court date for August 10 for a debt purchased and Dominion Law Associates is the attorney for plaintiff. They have called numerous times, but never left a message or stated why they were calling. I only knew it was them by doing a phone search. Now they have sent a Warrant in Debt. Not sure if I should go or not.

I have high blood pressure and this is really stressful. just getting out of the hospital with blood clots on my lungs and liver. I just don't understand... How can I handle this?

Hello - I found your site because I am having a lot of trouble with Dominion Law Associates and I thought you might be able to help me. I live in Charlottesville Va and I was sued by Capital 1 in a Richmond. I live in Charlottesville Va and I was sued by Capital 1 in a Richmond Court in they were granted judgement in 2005. I never received the served paperwork and had no idea about this. Two years ago I bought a house and did have a debt I knew about there and it was paid with the closing. Never did they mention another debt and 3 mos ago they garnished my wages. The original bill was 900 and the total now is $3100. They have gotten $1550 through garnishment and now want another $1,200 to settle. I asked them for a copy of the debt information and they have never provided that.

Dawnita, I'm curious if you went to court to respond to the warrant of debt or if they dropped it before the court date?

I have a question about statue of limitaions I live in va and I received a summons for judgment for a debt it was started in 1998 and apparently they sent a summons in 2004 for me to go to court but I never received it I had moved. That was by midland now dominion law associates garnished my wages after I paid the the debt off and the only reason I paid was so they would not garnish my wages. I received the summons march 24 to appear in court for a judgment for dominion law associates. U call them they say I owe 5000 for a debt from 1998 I tell them I don't know anything about this, they tell me I was sent a summons in 2004 to go to court but I didn't get it I had moved to New address, they tell me it was for some company midland I had no clue? Well they told me they were going to garnish my wages until I go to court april 16 so I agreed to pay it to stop garnishment but they garnished my wages any way. After I paid in full the debt was not 5000 to begin with it could not have been more than a couple hundred dollars. I told them this debt is to old they cant collect but they said they have 10 years to collect well 2004 until 2014 is 10 years. Im just hoping since I already paid the debt in that he may still be able help me because I was upset and made a rash decision about this because I was concerned over my wages but they garnished them any way after I paid!

I am looking for misconduct reports concerning Dominion Law out of VA Beach, VA. They have place a judgement on me a year ago where I made payments to them as long as I could. They were very harrassing, calling me the day after payment was made, calling beginning of the month, etc... I lost my job and told them I was not able to fulfil my obligation at that time. They sent another judgement 3/3/ 14 on my front door. Today they took $999.75 out of my bank account!!! without giving me a date or notification of doing so. the judgement notes a court hearing 5/14/14 which I was lead to believe I would have until; t then to resolve this matter. As I said, the paper I have has no indication they would be stealing money out of my bank account on any date. I am left to wonder how this can happen. Are they given entitlement to look at my personal information? I am speaking in terms such as my bank account number and other pertinent information. At this time I am pretty consumed with this issue. The total on the judgement is 870.75 but they took 999.75. WTH? I also see they are not BBB accredited. Why am I not surprised!

I have a complaint against Dominion Law Associates in Virginia Beach, VA. I was served a judgement ($2,318.50) in 2005. In 2007, my wages were garnished to satisfy this judgement. Sometime between 2005 and 2008, Dominion Law Associates came in possession of this account. They placed a lien upon the title of my home. According to Dominion Law's records this judgement was satisfied thru them in 8/2008 in amount of excess $4,200. Dominion Law has not been able to produce documentation showing funds paid to them AND they never filed the proper notarized documentation to release the judgement lien on the title of my home. This has resulted in a delay of sale of my home!

This is Alice..I have been served a garnishment summons from Dominion law firm kama they had only two names on the summons so I called the court and found out that were two other cases that were included in the case. They have froze my checking account, which is SSI money and I asked for a garnishment exemption waiver form which I sent into the course, should I go to the court or should I let the judge handle it since this is SSI money, I have sent all the paperwork that the judge will need to prove my case. Thank you I do not work I'm disabled and legally blind in one eye and hurt my back on the job this case was originally took the court in 2008 and they wait this long and then come by and other cases, the depth was sold so many times I could not keep up with it so now I have hired attorneys to look into it with prepaid lawyers. But I don't want to use them unless I have to the amount that through asking for is $1,910, I did research on the company's that there representing and come to find out the either out of business or rather practices are so shady and have now looking into Dominion law firm!
