Hi Friend

Did you know that everyone has legal 
issues? 

They may not be "in your face" issues 
like owing the IRS money or an error 
in your student loan
balance that you've ended up paying for
...for years!

They could be simple things like disputing 
a cell phone bill, or having a contractor 
rectify some repairs done on your home.

In very many cases, people don't even 
know that they could have an attorney 
deal with those little issues that come up. 

They end up "taking a loss".

Let me tell you a story... 

When I moved from New York To 
New Jersey about 14 years ago, I started 
getting letters from a collection agency 
about a past due balance for a Verizon 
account I had when I lived in 
New York. 

I immediately disputed it but for years, 
no one listened. 

I continued to get the letters, although 
they were coming less than when I first 
moved. 

I even had a customer rep tell me not to 
worry about it.

Seriously...don't worry about it?

How can you not worry about a  

About a year ago, I opened a Verizon 
account for Fios. 

After about 2 weeks, I decided that I did
not like the service and wanted to close 
the account and return to my former 
cable provider. 

There was a balance on the Verizon 
Fios account which I had every intention 
on paying but about two weeks after I 
closed the account, I received 
a phone call about my Verizon account. 

Thinking it was in reference to my 
most current account, I paid it. 

Finally, about three weeks later, I 
received another call from Verizon
inquiring when I would pay the 
balance of the Fios account.

After making a phone call, I found 
out that the first Verizon phone call 
was in reference to the old account. 

Basically, I paid an 14 year phone 
bill that had been disputed all along.

I was also informed that I could not 
get my payment back. 

I found it odd that this collection agency, 
stating that they were Verizon, could 
still, after 14 years, attempt to get payment 
on an account I had disputed from the 
very beginning. 

Thank goodness I am a LegalShield 
member because within a week after 
calling my law firm, my money was 
deposited back into my account 
and I received a letter of apology.
