Exceptional Experience

Mike Bertucci handled my case professionally and successfully. Lakisha Joshua took time to understand my case with the utmost patience. Both Mike and Lakisha, in my opinion, are true assets to Agruss Law firm.

I was involved in an auto accident exactly a year ago. I had an attorney working on my case. Before we had settled the case, the other parties insurance has issued me a check around $4-5k. Not knowing what it was for exactly, I deposited the check since my name was on it. The case settled sometime in June this year. Today, AFNI called my wife repeatedly at her workplace and finally called me during my work hours claiming that I owed $67,000. They provided a very general description of my case, and I thought it was regarding the money I “owed”. I said I owed exactly $4k which was a made up amount. They immediately said that was the correct amount and needed to pay that right away. If I didn’t, he threatened to get my license suspended and that he would contact AFNI’s attorney.

I was involved in an accident when I did not have insurance. I now owe $2,000 to a collections agency acting on behalf of the insurance. They said if I do not pay they will suspend my license.

Hello Eddie. This isn't surprising, debt collectors love to suggest that you find someone to give you money to pay your debts. You can make them stop calling you, though, and I would be happy to speak with you to discuss how. I will reach out and we can have a no-obligation, totally free consultation. Thanks, Mike

Hi Sheri. Your story is very similar to others I've heard and it isn't surprising that you're dealing with these frequent and annoying phone calls from AFNI. Fortunately, I have helped many consumers to deal with AFNI and other debt collectors and I'd be happy to speak with you about your options as well. Give me a call at 888 572 0176, but I will also reach out to you soon. Thanks, Mike

Hi Tristan. Do you know of any debts you may owe that AFNI is calling about? If you're not sure that the debt is legitimate, you can request a debt verification letter from them and I can help you to do this. I will give you a call and we can discuss this further. Thanks, Mike

Hi Gregory. If you want AFNI to stop calling, you certainly have that right. A cease and desist letter may be your best option and it will give you a paper trail should AFNI not honor your request. If you suspect that your rights are being violated, please feel free to contact my office at your earliest convenience. Thanks, Mike

Hi LaQuiesha. Debt collection calls are typically not something that the DNC registry covers. When you have a debt, it is considered a business contract and debt collectors are then permitted to call you to try and secure payment. However, you don't have to keep being bothered by these calls, you can make them stop. I am going to give you a call and we can discuss the law, your rights, and your options in dealing with debt collection calls. Thanks, Mike

I was in a car accident in September of 2019, the other parties insurance put me completely at fault due to the fact that I was coming from a stop sign. However I tried to content because their driver claimed he could not see multiple times and I even had to read something for him. I called his insurance during the duration of the claim multiple times ..and even asked that they send me documentation, which they never did, not once. Unfortunately during this time my insurance chose to rescind my policy due to a discrepancy made by my insurance broker regarding failure to update my address. Now This number ‭+1 (866) 889-1617‬ has been calling me non-stop. They never speak when I answer or leave a voicemail. I recently sold my car because I just graduated and, I moved back home to New York. I had my mail forwarded and just received a letter from “AFNI” today for a collections amount of $10,001. (The letter was dated for January 3rd 2020) At no point did the other’s party’s insurance reach out to me regarding settle for payment or anything. I have not heard from them since I called hem trying to find out the status of my insurance claim. “AFNI” has been calling me aggressively on a daily basis for weeks. I have no money and no job. And no way to pay the money they claim I owe.

This company is calling saying I owe them $2000 for an auto accident that I was in.. First saying that they are the insurance company called Bristol west. That I owe this money. Next call that they are a collection agency for Bristol west. There was several calls unanswered and several where no-one was on the line. I told them to stop calling and was threatened to pay or they will see me in court and will continue to call constantly until i do pay

This number is calling my father everyday. They call his cell phone (561-670-1211) and are pretty aggressive. My father is a senior citizen, I am his only caretaker and have reason to be concerned about these phone calls. This is effecting my job and I need to resolve this issue immediately. I can go further into detail about this at your request. Thank you. Gianna H.

I was involved in a motor vehicle accident that I was proven innocent and not guilty for. The court dismissed me of any costs for vehicle damages and I have the documents from the court proving it. However this company AFNI keeps calling my phone and has called 3 times so far and left two messages. They're asking me for damages that I was deemed not responsible for. I have notice from the court as well.
