Through the law firm, Bowden Barlow, Student Loan Solutions buys up old student loan debt, mostly from Bank of America. They are suing students, not finding solutions to their loan issues. Their lawsuits are filed without the proper assignment or title paperwork to prove their case. I see a lot of Statute of Limitations issues with these lawsuits. So, when you are sued by SLS, review the paperwork to ensure that there is evidence and documentation to support the balance SLS claims is owed. In some cases, though you have not paid in years, Florida caselaw says that the actual beginning of the statute of limitations case starts when SLS sends out its letter for full balance from a firm called Williams & Fudge whose letter is attached to the SLS Florida lawsuit (see below).
You can beat this lawsuit and SOL case if you kept a letter for the full balance from BOA or Sunshine Credit Services similar to this sample sent to you years ago (clients keep the letter):
If you have this letter, you can possibly get out of the whole debt. Our goal for you is to point out to the Court that SLS has not followed state and federal law when attempting to collect a debt. In the past with have counter sued SLS and got our clients' debt eliminated.
How to Deal with Debt Collectors
The main attorneys on all of SLS debt collection lawsuits are Bowden Barlow law firm. They specialize in suing consumers with debt collection lawsuits. Look for the law firm's name on the Summons in your paperwork to confirm SLS is suing you through those law firms. When you get sued by SLS in State court, an answer and counter claim against them is the best approach to eliminating or settling your debt when the facts are there. I have not seen much proof of ownership of the specific debt they are suing upon-just general Bill of Sale paper or Affidavits that do not apply to you. Get your paperwork to us within 21 days of being served and we will provide you a free analysis to help you win. FIND THAT BOA OR SUNRISE LETTER TO WIN THIS.
When you hire us, first we will file a Response or an “Answer” to the lawsuit to avoid a default being filed against you. If they get a default against you, they can levy or garnish your bank accounts and paycheck. You want to avoid this at all costs. Second, we file a Counter Claim showing the Court that SLS did not file or attach the proper paperwork to the lawsuit. The real paperwork is long gone from being bought and sold by different entities and debt buyers. Your counter claim shows the Court that SLS has no standing to sue you and therefore they broke the law. FIND THE BOA SUNRISE LETTER. You may then be entitled to money damages and attorney fees and costs. A counter claim of this nature will settle lawsuits quickly and eliminate your debt.
Case resolution is simple with the right attorney. If you need help with an SLS lawsuit, then contact me at 248-342-9583 or through our free evaluation form.
