ditaloca 71 Posted March 30, 2010 Report Share Posted March 30, 2010 To see the saga please read the old posts. We agreed to a confidentiality clause for the amount, but EACH COMPANY ended up paying, sort of. Midland settled and made Bursey and Associates pay for the claim against them. So in the end we got our home, we got our credit report corrected including the erroneous TL removed and we got a very nice check from Bursey and Associates.All I can say is sometimes the little guy does win and if you are willing to stand up for yourself in the end it is worth it.Anyone dealing with any JDB or variation there of does themselves a great disservice if they don't know their rights and assert and enforce them.

He even asked the judge for a continuance! HAHA!! So I won b/c Ashley didn't respond to the subpeona Calawyer told me to get. I got it in at the last minute. 11 days til trial.

JDBStick 10 Posted August 31, 2011 Report Share Posted August 31, 2011 I can't mention their name (confidentiallity agreement), but they are a real "Asset" to the JDB community. Filed all of my paperwork, and within 3 weeks they sent me a Mutual release notice. I was relieved to get my first win. Working on a case with Advantage Assets right now. Nothing attached to complaint. Not even the bogus affidavit or a statement. Hoping to actually get a settlement offer on this one. Maybe my first check if I work it right. Really good FDCPA and other violations.Thanks to the community with a special thanks to BV80, who got me focused early on. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
