Although Unifund has been given all of the information it has requested it continues to try and sue me for money I do not owe. Their wonderful bottom feeder attorney group will file the suite and hope that you do not show at the return date and get a default judgment. However, Showing up and contesting the complaint doesn’t go over well with them.
They will oppose a trail date and seek a status court date in the future. After agreeing on that they will then file a motion for a continuance to a different date (state they notified although never via certified mail – go figure). They then have a fresh court date of which you do no know about and obtain a default judgment.
If you catch them however they will seek continuance after continuance until a trail date is set. At the trail since they have no evidence they again how you will not show up. If you show up they are again disappointed and will have the case dismissed without prejudice.
So now you think this is behind you, boy are you wrong. The bottom feeder waits about 8 or 9 months and then files again because they can within 1 year. The cycle starts over again. This company and the useless bottom feeder attorneys will do everything they can to abuse and bully you out of money they do not deserve. Stand up and fight do not let them get away with this.
The Bottom feeder attorney wonder why the have a bad name for themselves- go figure. There is a reason that 1000 lawyers on the bottom of the ocean joke excists.

| 1. Written by Ryan D., on 08-08-2009 20:38 Hey BUBBA55, I've also been sued by Unifund /Adler & Assoc., in DuPage County. Yes, the best thing is to answer their complaint on time and attend every court date. Hire a consumer attorney if you can; there are a few around Chicago who will defend for a reasonable fee. Unifund usually wins only when the defendant fails to respond. But otherwise Unifund will back off, especially since their evidence tends to be flimsy. If the case ends in dismissal without prejudice, it should be dismissed WITH prejudice the next time they sue and lose again. Also the statute of limitations in Illinois for credit card debt is 5 years. |
