I have just settled a lawsuit out of court with this company. They will pay my attornies fees, I get a $300.00 personal settlement check and they will remove all negative collections data from the three credit reports. It does pay sometimes to argue. It was an old AT& T bill for a Cingular Cellphone early termination fee - remember ATT bought Cingular. What I did was keep a record of when they called, and even was able to record one of the treatening calls. When they called my ex-husband (who I divorced over 15 years ago) I knew I had them. Here is the attorney who helped me.

They can not help with every collection company and they can not always settle but they were very upfront with me before we started whether they thought I had a case.
Thank you Adam for all your help
