10 year old debts with garnishments unannounced are past the statue of limitations in NYS for being able to sue on so NO they do not know the law. Moron.

Apparently these two knuckle-heads have a new firm; Pennisi, Daniels & Norelli, LLP. No mention of debt collecting on the site, but we know from our visitors they are still collecting. If you have a recent collection letter from them please forward the letter-head info to us so we can update the site. Thank you.

****CONSUMER ALERT****
ANOTHER CON-AMERICA FRANCHISEE
Attorney Fred G. Daniels has been practicing law since 1976. He used to claim his expertise was in real estate law. He apparently was not making the kind of money that suited his style, so he switched to being a debt collector lawyer.
Partner George H. Norelli began his law career in 1984 who also claimed to be a real estate lawyer. He too chose to make the career change from real estate law to debt collector lawyer.
Along came another lawyer, Meredith E. Unger who joined them as a debt collector and they all became a franchisee for the most disgusting collection agency and America's Worst; 'Collect (con) America'
As with all Con-America franchisee's Daniels & Norelli rented an office in Westbury, NY, hired the usual mix of con men, idiots, uneducated collectors and goons, who set about the task of lying, cheating and harassing consumers out of their money.
They are the typical 'Con-America' cesspool of collector-goons using phony names and threats of litigation, judgments, and civil suits if monies are not immediately forthcoming. They use the telephone to harass, oppress, intimidate, and threaten consumers.
Since Daniels & Norelli (by their own admissions) NEVER did debt collection work prior to becoming a 'Con-America' franchisee, one wonders how much money they have extorted from consumers under threats of legal actions that they cannot or NEVER will take.
I have problems with losers who cannot make it in their chosen fields, then turn to debt collection as much the same way someone elects to become a drug baron. The allure of big money at little expense clouds their perception of the industry, yet they embark on a course that mirrors terrorism against consumers, at its worst.
My reasons for EVERYONE avoiding this fraud of an operation are:
They are a part of the 'Collect America' network, which is as bad as a debt collector can get.
They have NO prior experience in debt collection, or Fair Debt Collection Practices Act litigation, which means they are liars, when threatening it.
This appears (on the surface) to be Daniels & Norelli's attempt to get rich quick, when (apparently) they couldn't make it in their past attempts at practicing law as real estate experts.
The complaints I have fielded from consumers regarding this collection agency are of vicious liars, thieves, con men and extortionists, that they have working for them.
Blend it together and you have a perfect recipe to AVOID theses con artists and goons at all costs.
If collectors for Daniels & Norelli are abusing you, contact the New York State Bar with your complaints. If you are being threatened, contact the New York FBI.
My mother got several calls from this number. They were very threatening and intimidating. My mother is 72 years old, very poor health and has lost everything to Hurricane Ike. He said he was going to take her to court if he didn't get payment in full by the following friday. She asked him for his name and number and said she would call him back on monday. He being a man named Joe Lupo at extension 3086. He has called her about 8 times since then. I called him and told him not to call her anymore, only corresponde with her by mail, he gave me his fax number and told me to send him authorization from my mom to talk to him and that he would continue calling (harrassing) her until the bill was paid.
