Would love to have their phone number, so I could call them up and pester them like they pester me, several times a week.

This Law office calls everyday but never leaves a message....not quite sure why they keep calling. Number is 248-432-1112.

This is a Law Office that works for Midland Credit Management and other bottom feeder debit collectors trying to collect charged off or old debits.

I get calls from this number every couple weeks it seems.  No message is ever left.  My caller id only shows limited characters so all I get is Law Offices of.

These lowlife bottom feeders at Stillman Law Office keep calling everyday on an old debt owned by my son, who is a JR. This is a debt past the SOL  They have harassed me everyday at 9am to get to him, and he does not live here. If these calls do not STOP, I WILL bring charges against them as prosecute to the full extinct the law will permit

What exactly would the "full extent of the law" be?  We also are harassed by this lame outfit, even in the evening as late as 9:00!  I've told them my son doesn't live here anymore, I have infrequent contact with him, and I've told him that these idiots are trying to get in touch with him.  What would our legal rights be with these slimeballs?

These people keep calling on some old debt, they originally sent someone round to force me to sign paperwork and make payments

When I lost my job I called them to see what I could do, they said they would cancel the agreement no more payments would be taken and once I got income again I should call and reestablish the agreement to pay the debt

Firstly they lied, the agreement was not cancelled and the next payment went out as usual causing an account to go overdrawn, then when I called again this time they said they would cancel it and stop payments being taken, that it hadent been done before and no explanation why, they also informed me that the previous person I spoke to who said nothing bad would happen from me doing this and actually advised this as my best option until I got more income, they now said that was all lies and they would come after me any way they could

Now they wont stop calling at random times of day and night

These people are complete idiots.  The have been trying to collect on a debt that was paid in full a month before they ever got involved.  Instead of calling their client to confirm this, they choose to call me three times a day.  At first it was slightly annoying, but then I was served papers and recived a summons to appear in court...in person, no phone.  I have sent a proof of payment and cancellation of the debt owed twice, but they say they never received it. Now I have to take a day off of work to try to settle this in court...UNBELIEVABLE!

From Federal Trade Commission Website ? FAIR DEBT COLLECTION PRACTICES ACT
Debt Collection FAQs: A Guide for Consumers
If you?re behind in paying your bills, or a creditor?s records mistakenly make it appear that you are, a debt collector may be contacting you.
The Federal Trade Commission (FTC), the nation?s consumer protection agency, enforces the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA), which prohibits debt collectors from using abusive, unfair, or deceptive practices to collect from you.
Under the FDCPA, a debt collector is someone who regularly collects debts owed to others. This includes collection agencies, lawyers who collect debts on a regular basis, and companies that buy delinquent debts and then try to collect them.
Here are some questions and answers about your rights under the Act.

What types of debts are covered?
The Act covers personal, family, and household debts, including money you owe on a personal credit card account, an auto loan, a medical bill, and your mortgage. The FDCPA doesn?t cover debts you incurred to run a business.

Can a debt collector contact me any time or any place?
No. A debt collector may not contact you at inconvenient times or places, such as before 8 in the morning or after 9 at night, unless you agree to it. And collectors may not contact you at work if they?re told (orally or in writing) that you?re not allowed to get calls there.

How can I stop a debt collector from contacting me?
If a collector contacts you about a debt, you may want to talk to them at least once to see if you can resolve the matter ? even if you don?t think you owe the debt, can?t repay it immediately, or think that the collector is contacting you by mistake. If you decide after contacting the debt collector that you don?t want the collector to contact you again, tell the collector ? in writing ? to stop contacting you. Here?s how to do that:
Make a copy of your letter. Send the original by certified mail, and pay for a ?return receipt? so you?ll be able to document what the collector received. Once the collector receives your letter, they may not contact you again, with two exceptions: a collector can contact you to tell you there will be no further contact or to let you know that they or the creditor intend to take a specific action, like filing a lawsuit. Sending such a letter to a debt collector you owe money to does not get rid of the debt, but it should stop the contact. The creditor or the debt collector still can sue you to collect the debt.

Can a debt collector contact anyone else about my debt?
If an attorney is representing you about the debt, the debt collector must contact the attorney, rather than you. If you don?t have an attorney, a collector may contact other people ? but only to find out your address, your home phone number, and where you work. Collectors usually are prohibited from contacting third parties more than once. Other than to obtain this location information about you, a debt collector generally is not permitted to discuss your debt with anyone other than you, your spouse, or your attorney.

What does the debt collector have to tell me about the debt?
Every collector must send you a written ?validation notice? telling you how much money you owe within five days after they first contact you. This notice also must include the name of the creditor to whom you owe the money, and how to proceed if you don?t think you owe the money.

Can a debt collector keep contacting me if I don?t think I owe any money?
If you send the debt collector a letter stating that you don?t owe any or all of the money, or asking for verification of the debt, that collector must stop contacting you. You have to send that letter within 30 days after you receive the validation notice. But a collector can begin contacting you again if it sends you written verification of the debt, like a copy of a bill for the amount you owe.

What practices are off limits for debt collectors?
Harassment. Debt collectors may not harass, oppress, or abuse you or any third parties they contact. For example, they may not:
    use threats of violence or harm;
    publish a list of names of people who refuse to pay their debts (but they can give this information to the credit reporting companies);
    use obscene or profane language; or
    repeatedly use the phone to annoy someone.

False statements. Debt collectors may not lie when they are trying to collect a debt. For example, they may not:
    falsely claim that they are attorneys or government representatives;
    falsely claim that you have committed a crime;
    falsely represent that they operate or work for a credit reporting company;
    misrepresent the amount you owe;
    indicate that papers they send you are legal forms if they aren?t; or
    indicate that papers they send to you aren?t legal forms if they are.

Debt collectors also are prohibited from saying that:
    you will be arrested if you don?t pay your debt;
    they?ll seize, garnish, attach, or sell your property or wages unless they are permitted by law to take the action and intend to do so; or
    legal action will be taken against you, if doing so would be illegal or if they don?t intend to take the action.

Debt collectors may not:
    give false credit information about you to anyone, including a credit reporting company;
    send you anything that looks like an official document from a court or government agency if it isn?t; or
    use a false company name.

Unfair practices. Debt collectors may not engage in unfair practices when they try to collect a debt. For example, they may not:
    try to collect any interest, fee, or other charge on top of the amount you owe unless the contract that created your debt ? or your state law ? allows the charge;
    deposit a post-dated check early;
    take or threaten to take your property unless it can be done legally; or
    contact you by postcard.

Can I control which debts my payments apply to?
Yes. If a debt collector is trying to collect more than one debt from you, the collector must apply any payment you make to the debt you select. Equally important, a debt collector may not apply a payment to a debt you don?t think you owe.

Can a debt collector garnish my bank account or my wages?
If you don?t pay a debt, a creditor or its debt collector generally can sue you to collect. If they win, the court will enter a judgment against you. The judgment states the amount of money you owe, and allows the creditor or collector to get a garnishment order against you, directing a third party, like your bank, to turn over funds from your account to pay the debt.
Wage garnishment happens when your employer withholds part of your compensation to pay your debts. Your wages usually can be garnished only as the result of a court order. Don?t ignore a lawsuit summons. If you do, you lose the opportunity to fight a wage garnishment.

Can federal benefits be garnished?
Many federal benefits are exempt from garnishment, including:
    Social Security Benefits
    Supplemental Security Income (SSI) Benefits
    Veterans? Benefits
    Civil Service and Federal Retirement and Disability Benefits
    Service Members? Pay
    Military Annuities and Survivors? Benefits
    Student Assistance
    Railroad Retirement Benefits
    Merchant Seamen Wages
    Longshoremen?s and Harbor Workers? Death and Disability Benefits
    Foreign Service Retirement and Disability Benefits
    Compensation for Injury, Death, or Detention of Employees of U.S. Contractors Outside the U.S.
    Federal Emergency Management Agency Federal Disaster Assistance
But federal benefits may be garnished under certain circumstances, including to pay delinquent taxes, alimony, child support, or student loans.

Do I have any recourse if I think a debt collector has violated the law?
You have the right to sue a collector in a state or federal court within one year from the date the law was violated. If you win, the judge can require the collector to pay you for any damages you can prove you suffered because of the illegal collection practices, like lost wages and medical bills. The judge can require the debt collector to pay you up to $1,000, even if you can?t prove that you suffered actual damages. You also can be reimbursed for your attorney?s fees and court costs. A group of people also may sue a debt collector as part of a class action lawsuit and recover money for damages up to $500,000, or one percent of the collector?s net worth, whichever amount is lower. Even if a debt collector violates the FDCPA in trying to collect a debt, the debt does not go away if you owe it.

What should I do if a debt collector sues me?
If a debt collector files a lawsuit against you to collect a debt, respond to the lawsuit, either personally or through your lawyer, by the date specified in the court papers to preserve your rights.

Where do I report a debt collector for an alleged violation?
Report any problems you have with a debt collector to your state Attorney General?s office (www.naag.org) and the Federal Trade Commission (www.ftc.gov). Many states have their own debt collection laws that are different from the federal Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. Your Attorney General?s office can help you determine your rights under your state?s law.

This phone number just called my Girlfriends Cell Phone - Left no message. Looking at past missed calls, they have called several times in the past and left no messages. Guess they don't want a callback.

Just to call number. Doesn't say what the call is about.

Me too.  I just got a new cell number on Monday, and it took no less than 3 days for this number to pop up on my caller ID.  I called them to find out why they were calling it, and the lady I talked to couldn't even find out for me based on my telephone number.  She told me she would remove my number from the system.  It's sad when these people call a number and have no idea why they are calling it.  I have never lived in Michigan in my life, my ex wife is from there, so I have no idea why they would even try to call me.

I just got a new home phone a few weeks ago (gave up on stupid cable phone) Apparently the person who had this number before never paid a bill in their lives, judging by the amount of debt collectors and attorney's offices that call me on this number. This number is particularily annoying because it is a recording, that doesn't ask for a person, but a number (perhaps a case number??) I have used the opt-out feature several times without success, and they call 2-3 times a day. The Caller ID reads 'Law office of s" but without the full name i can't really find the actual owner and ask them to stop calling /force them to stop calling through litigation. My brother works for the sheriff's office and i am ging to try pursuing something through them, but without knowing who it is, it may be hard to file a complaint. ANy suggestions? SHouldn't there be a law tat says phone companies should wait for some period before reassigning a number (or at least some measure to notify people that it is a new person?) If COngress wants my vote, then do something about anoying debt collectors that go seemingly unregulated in their harassment of innocent parties.

what is the status of limitation? and how long can they keep harrasing me?

Yup... it's Stillman Law Office and they tried to collect a debt from me not once but TWICE and BOTH of the debts were from my years in college and were way WAY out of the statute of limitations.

I keep getting phone calls on my cell phone with the caller id being a four digit number like 1111, 1112, 4121, etc...anyone know what to do?

This company calls me up to three times a day and when I answer they disconnect.  Huh? Aren't they calling to try to collect some money???  I told them that I am not the person they are looking for (when they spoke to me at first) and don't owe anyone anything.  They have been harassing me for three or four years and today I turned 'em in to the FTC.  WooHoo!  It makes me feel better that I finally have done something to stop them.  And I also get to vent here.  Its a good day.
My next step will be using a lawyer who will file on them pro bono.  Lucky me.

i  started getting this number too. with random number left on the recording doesn't match with any acct number or social of mine or have known. started last month have been calling 3 times a day 7 days a week. when i hang up they continue to call. wish they would stop. wonder where they suddenly conjured up my number from.

A Law office near Detroit who collects debts.  It is most likely a very old debt that is past the SOL.  Stillman Law Office.

Keep calling, day after day. No messages have no idea who is calling. I wish I knew.
