LVNV Funding

LVNV Funding is a debt collection agency, often referred to as a Junk Debt Buyer.  Their business is based in purchasing your debt from an organization that you owe money to.  The organizations they may have purchased your debt from include banks or other financial institutions or even other debt collection agencies.  Once they own your debt, they will become the collector and will pursue payment from you. If they contact you about debt collection or if their name appears on your credit report this may mean that you owe them money. Understanding and handling your debt situation is complicated and often times confusing to the point of frustration. For more information about LVNV Funding, call us at (248) 398-7100 for a free consultation or contact us with a private message. We are licensed Michigan attorneys, with offices in Troy, and Lake Orion Michigan.

In Michigan LVNV Funding is often represented by Mary Jane Elliot’s office, Weltman Weinberg & Reis, or Stenger & Stenger, P.C. You may have received letters about the amount you owe, describing the transfer of your debt.  You may see names of debt collection agencies you’ve never heard of before, including LVNV Funding.  That’s because your debt can legally be transferred multiple times without your consent.  Amidst these transfers, you may lose track of a debt you owe.  Often times individuals receive notification about owing a debt that is higher than they were expecting.  It can be very difficult to understand the transfer of your debt and even more difficult to get any information from debt collection agencies such as LVNV Funding.  The attorneys at Garmo & Kiste, PLC are here to answer your questions and will pursue the information you need.  It is important to go through the process with an expert to ensure that your debt payments are given to the correct debtor and that the proper documentation follows in order to ensure that your debt will be legitimately and wholly cleared.  This is especially important when you see multiple names, including LVNV Funding, on statements.

In some cases, the behavior of LVNV is not legal.  Their actions could be in violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA).  The FDCPA is a federal law that serves to protect consumers from abusive debt collection behavior.  This includes communicating at unusual times or contacting you directly once you have obtained an attorney.  Though this law applies in Michigan, many are unaware of the protection it grants.  If LVNV or another debt collection agency has engaged in behavior such as this, please contact Garmo & Kiste, PLC to help. For more information about LVNV Funding, call us at (248) 398-7100 for a free consultation or contact us with a private message. We are licensed Michigan attorneys, with offices in Troy, and Lake Orion Michigan.
