Where We Focus

Explore the areas of consumer law the firm handles most often.

Credit Reporting Errors (FCRA)

Inaccurate, outdated, or mixed-file credit reporting that the bureaus and furnishers will not fix.

Debt Collection Harassment (FDCPA)

Abusive, deceptive, or unfair collection tactics by debt collectors and, in Maryland, some original creditors.

Unwanted Calls & Texts (TCPA)

Robocalls, autodialed calls, and marketing texts sent without the consent the law requires.

Mortgage Servicing Errors

Misapplied payments, escrow mistakes, force-placed insurance, and servicer-caused credit damage.

Foreclosure Defense

Defense strategies for Maryland homeowners, from loss mitigation and modification review to litigation.

Auto Dealer Fraud & Class Actions

Hidden fees and financing practices at auto dealers, and claims that affect many consumers the same way.

Not Sure Where Your Issue Fits?

You do not need to know the right legal category. Tell us what happened and we can review the situation and point you in the right direction. There is no cost to have your matter reviewed, and submitting information does not create an attorney-client relationship or a request for legal advice.
