Down, But Not Out – America's Revolt against being 'Written Off!' Show 12: Atty vs. Atty – Rolling Out Your Own Big Guns When the Bill Collectors Call

In Physics, it is said that every force creates an equal and opposite force.  Nowhere is that more true than in the industry we call Debt Collection.  Unsophisticated consumers (aren’t we all?) are awed and intimidated by the seemingly irresistible force of Collection Agencies when they come after you for dollars owed.

It ain’t necessarily so.  The “immovable object” of savvy and competent counsel can be placed between you and their efforts to very good effect.  In fact, it is not uncommon for a debtor and his/her attorney to file lawsuits in those cases of illegal or extortionate activities.

Listen in as we interview Erik kardatzke, attorney and founder of the Debt Defense Law Firm to see how the “big guns” of collection agencies can be silenced by the even “bigger guns” of consumer attorneys.

About Erik Kardatzke

Erik Kardatzke is a former debt collection attorney who “went rogue” inn 2007 when he switched sides and founded his law firm, Debt Defense PLC, and began representing consumers against banks, credit card companies, debt collectors, and their attorneys in Florida.

Kardatzke’s efforts to affect changes have resulted in successfully battling to shorten the statute of limitations on credit card debt from five to four and even three years, while his Mohammed v. Capital One Bank victory effectively stopped the filing of thousands of debt collection lawsuits against Floridians.

As a result of his determined and effective efforts on behalf of consumers, he is respected, and…shall we say politely…detested, by debt collectors across the country.
