Hello everyone. The Law Office of Barbara Tsaturova just put a hold on bank account for $2,650. Im not sure how they can do that from medical debt from my DISABLED daughter I owed from 2002 but they can! I called them to see if I could work with them some how. NOPE!!!! NOTHING!! So all of the money that i have been saving so i can continue to work at a law enforcement degree is GONE!! No money for gas to get to school, no money for car insurance. How am i suppose to live my life now!!! Thank you so much for ruining my career Barbara Tsaturova!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I hope Carma gets the best of you!
He is a so-called attorney who takes old medical debts and sues you. He is scum. No lower than scum. He is the crud of the earth. I don't know how this man lives with himself. We are claiming bankruptcy so he will not give a dime of the judgment he has against us.
OK.. This guy isn't very nice, nor are his staff. He appears to be collecting medical debt, old and new and then helping to make sure you pay it. Honestly if I could have paid it to begin with I would have, but the amount of medical debt I've been blessed with is another story for another time...
My experience was getting sued, the at least did give an itemized list and it was valid as far as I could tell. When he sued I took the calls more seriously. I get enough calls from various places looking for bits and pieces of what I can't afford (silly stuff like food and the household bills come first, once I get extra to pay some off, it's inevitable that others go unpaid and get picked up by places...) ... so I talked to them. They weren't that rude to start with, set up an agreement to pay.
This is where I made my mistake, I didn't get anything from them in writing, was happy to not have it go any further (Garnishment) and settle on a set monthly amount. It was more than I was comfortable with, but I made it work for 8 months - at the 6 month mark Michele (the aforementioned rude one) called. She tried a few of the numbers we had listed with them, but I missed her calls and didn't call her back. Well, in the talks about paying them back she mentioned a re-evaluation after so many months.... that is why she called. She made very little effort, left no details in the calls and apparently a short while after I didn't return the call she got the paperwork rolling on garnishment. That special little paper came to work well after it was too late. I called her immediately only to be told that I was "in violation of our agreement" - our unwritten, unsigned, verbal agreement.
That was BS, they weren't getting enough money fast enough and looked for the first viable excuse.
My advice:
Talk to the court. If you're hearing from him, you'll likely be dealing with the 58th District in Holland. My experience with the staff there, while they do seem busy, is that they cared more than Lobbes does. They have been helpful.
I'd get payment set up through the court to start with. That way they (Lobbes) can't just jerk you around on a whim without warning you. The wench still grates on me when I asked why, if I was so unreachable and in such violation of our agreement they cashed 2 more checks from me, her reply "those were good faith payments" - good faith? Why should I have that when you don't....
Hi,
I received a phone call from these people today statingI had a outstanding bill from 1992, and 1995.
I called the hospital about these bills, they even looked in their archives. NO RECORD OF THEM> My bills are paid they say. I even gave them the account numbers.. NOTHING> The billing department also said after 7 years they write the outstanding bills off as not collectible. So What is going on?
How can these people call me after 15 years and try to collect? If the Hospital says they dont have a record of anything? And they wrote off the bills already after so many years... How do they get this information? I would'nt give out any information to them ( this so called debt collector). I called them back and said that the institution that they say is the providor on MY BiLLS said I owe nothing.. So????
Who would I be paying exactly? They said a law office... HMMMM... Sounds very fishy to me.. Any thoughts??
when you got the bill from the hospital, why didn't you send it to your insurance company? you are paying them to pay your medical bills. the hospitals bills your insurance company as a courtesy and to get their money faster. if the hospital billed your insurance company incorrectly, then its your problem, not theirs. welcome to the real world!
