Debt Defense in New York City: Proper Lawsuit Notification

A consumer must be notified that a lawsuit is being filed through “proper service.” Per New York law, there are three ways to constitute proper service, generally;

 

·     Summons delivered to you personally

·     Summons delivered to someone at you home/business, followed by a mailing

·     Summons posted to your door, followed by a mailing

 

The Tariq Law, P.C. has successfully represented clients with debt collection defense cases for nearly a decade in areas of illegal service of court summons (“sewer service”), debt collection harassment, and many other financial matters. We routinely help people victimized by debt collectors who improperly serve them and abuse the lack of court oversight to get default judgments. We are aware of these abuses and other tactics the collections agencies use and will provide all possible defenses to stop them and protect your rights.
