Schachter Portnoy, L.L.C. Debt Collection Complaint

Schachter Portnoy, L.L.C. Debt collection department,

Credit card Taking/threatening an illegal action Sued w/o proper notification of suit New Jersey

I received a letter from the law firm Schacter Portnoy dated - -, 2015 that have been retained by - - - - - to collect on an amount due from Original Creditor, - - Bank. I have never received any communication from - prior to receiving the letter from Schacter. From what I have come to learn this is a violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. I believe Schacter Portnoy has also violated the FDCPA as I responded to their initial letter within the 30 days and instead of responding to my letter, they filed a lawsuit, responding to my letter two days after receiving the lawsuit. I am in the process of responding to a Motion For Summary Judgment as the law firm has not responded to my requests for discovery such as copies or proof of any communication attempts by - to contact me. I have requested proof from Schacter Portnoy proving they have been retained by - to collect the debt other than the law firm stating so on their letterhead. I will attach correspondence at this time and will assist you in all ways possible.
