Debt Collection Lawsuits Not Being Served - Is this Part of the Collection Business?
New York Attorney General will be filing a lawsuit against one of the largest servers of debt collection legal action notices for failing to effectively notify debtors that legal action is pending against them, according to a media report.The case, according to the paper, stems in part from a report issued by non-profit law firm MFY Legal Services.
Lawyers at MFY claim that it is in the best interest of creditors and debt collection law firms to make sure debtors do not receive notice of legal action. One lawyer told The Times that “sewer service” – simply discarding court notices with no attempt to deliver them to consumers – is a part of the business model of collection lawsuits.
Outrageous! Creditors and debt collection companies bank on debtors not showing up to their court hearing in order for them to obtain a judgment against you. But not properly serving you so you have no chance in just apprehensible.

Jeff sues abusive debt collectors and helps consumers that have incorrect information on their credit reports.
