This is not a law firm, they are a debt collector. For me, this is on behalf of Fingerhut, and i had gotten behind in my payments but believed the debt had been sent to collection.
I called twice on the same day to arrange payment but they wouldn't take it unless i paid $200 now and $150 per month after. They continued to threaten legal action if i didn't pay the amounts they wanted. Yet, when i asked how they could do that if i was attempting to pay the debt, they said they could NOT advise me legally. So they're posing as attorneys. I'm not even sure the court summons they sent me is real and i will be visiting my local court where it is supposedly on file to find out.
Upon further investigation, my fingerhut account is still open and i can make payments. I found a lot of frightening reviews about this Forster & Garbus' tactics. I believe they're like a bounty hunter and have the option of trying to obtain payment & if successful, then they get a cut of what they retrieve.
