Law Firm Collectors

Members of the infamous Mann Bracken have started a new law firm to resurrect their careers. Like the now-defunct Mann Bracken, the lawyers will specialize in collection. Kramer, Meggison & Taylor LLC and has offices in Rockville and Atlanta.

At http://www.lawyers.com/Georgia/Atlanta/Kramer-Meggison-and-Taylor-LLC-43245553-f.html, the Atlanta office received a rating of 5 from none other than W. Christopher Bracken, III. (of course, good ratings must be kept up!)

NCO has backed off their stalking horse position of prospective Axiant acquirer. Could it be that it just would not pass the 'smell test?'

We have followed cases where the National Arbitration Forum claim form for MBNA America Bank is claimed "c/o Wolpoff & Abramson, LLP'. That same case is then shifted to Patenaude & Felix, for filing in your county Courthouse as a Petition to Confirm Arbitration --- once the award is made. (If this is happening to you in Orange County or Los Angeles County, or anywhere in Southern California, contact us now.)

Wolpoff and Abramson is a routine replacement for Patenaude & Felix, when the court goings get 'tough' (like when things get contested!)

I wonder if Wolpoff is selling arbitration awards to Patenaude & Felix for filing? The reason I ask that is as soon as rough waters are encountered, Patenaude throws the case back to Wolpoff & Abramson, who does the showing up at court.

Wolpoff and Abramson must definitely be really well heeled, or connected. I've always wondered where they got their seed money.

As far as Patenaude and Felix are concerned, it appears they may have gotten some of their seed money from the Federal Government. According to OMB Watch at FedSpending.Org, the SBA gave Patenaude & Felix nearly a million dollars

Unsecured debt backed only by the integrity of the borrower, not by collateral, and documented by an agreement called an indenture. One example is an unsecured bond.

The Gordon & Wong Law Group PC has now officially entered the Orange County Court with numerous filings on behalf of FIA Card Services, formerly MBNA Card Services.

According to the gordonwong.com website, the firm has "50 years of experience" and the "GORDON & WONG LAW GROUP has perfected the process of economically collecting your claim."

An initial scan of filings show that the firm is relying upon the Arbitration stuffer and clauses claimed by MBNA - FIA Card Services.

We note their strategy is to file these:

PETITION TO CONFIRM ARBITRATION AWARD

MOTION TO COMPEL/CONFIRM ARBITRATION

In almost all of the cases we are watching and monitoring, Gordon & Wong is unopposed in the courthouse!
