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.

Hi Adam. I'm sorry that your mom is getting these calls. Have you asked Portfolio Recovery Associates to provide her with a debt validation letter? This will help you to figure out if the debt is legitimate or if there is an error. I can help you to do so, just give me a call at 888 572 0176 and we can get started. Thanks, Mike

Hi Kate. This is common practice in the debt collection world. They will also use phone numbers with an area code close to yours so that you will be more inclined to pick up. You can make the calls stop, though. Give me a call at 888 572 0176 and we can talk about how. Thanks, Mike

Hi Richard. What is Portfolio Recovery Associates saying when they call you? Do you possibly owe a debt that they are attempting to collect on? If you're unsure, or if you just want the calls to stop, my office can help. We are experienced in dealing with Portfolio Recovery Associates and other debt collectors/collection agencies and can likely help you. I will be in touch to discuss this with you. Thanks, Mike

Hi Romana. Unfortunately, debt collectors do not have to accept that negative things happen in life that make paying full payments impossible. And under the law, they can take you to court at any time for a debt in collections. I can discuss your options in dealing with Portfolio Recovery Associates when I give you a call. Thanks, Mike

Hi Carlos. Is it possible the debt is an older debt that has been sold to Portfolio Recovery Associates? You can always request a debt validation letter from them to determine if there is a legitimate debt or if they are calling you in error. You can also make the calls stop with a certified cease and desist letter. If you need help with either of these things, you can reach out to my office and we can discuss your rights under the law and possible compensation if Portfolio Recovery Associates violates your rights. 888 572 0176 Thanks, Mike

Hi Aime. There are things you can do to make the calls stop. Debt collectors are not permitted to call you outside of legally permissible hours, which is between 8am-9pm. What hours are they calling you? If you have a call log of the calls, you can send it over to my office and I will review it and give you a call. Thanks, Mike [email protected]

Hi Andrew. Do you know of any debts you may owe to Portfolio Recovery Associates? If you're unsure if you owe them a debt, you can request a debt validation letter. You can also send a certified cease and desist letter to make the calls stop. I can help you with these things and I will be in touch to discuss how. Thanks, Mike

Hi. I'm sorry to hear that you're dealing with these calls following the loss of your husband. Did he owe any debts that Portfolio Recovery Associates could be calling about? Were you the co-signer on any debts that he could owe? Since this is a unique situation, I would like to speak with you about it in more detail over the phone. I will give you a call or you can reach me at 888 572 0176. Thanks, Mike

Hi Syed. It is common for debt collectors to use many different phone numbers, as well as use phone numbers with an area code close to yours to try and trick you into answering their calls. You can block them but it always seems like they have more numbers at their disposal. Fortunately, you do have options in dealing with these calls, especially if you don't even owe a debt to them. Let's talk about this further, give me a call and we can have a free, no-obligation consultation. 888 572 0176 Thanks, Mike

Hi Ashley. Debt collectors like to threaten consumers in an attempt to scare them into paying. However, this tactic is against the law and they cannot threaten you with legal action unless they fully intend on following through. Did you have a written agreement about the payment plan you had set up? Let's talk more about this, I will be in touch to discuss your situation, your rights, and the law. Thanks, Mike

I've been getting calls from Portfolio Recovery Associates at random times of the day. They call from different phone numbers, I block them and they call from different numbers. This is very intrusive. How can you help me? I don't owe them anything. This has been confirmed over the phone with them before. They told me they won't call me again, and after a while they have been calling me again. They call me at two different numbers. First one is 202-643-2864. Second one is 4433539252. I just need this to stop!
