I was recently sued by a debt collectors attorney. They dropped the charges and I got a judgment of dismissal from the court. This debt has not been proven to be mine and I am thinking of sending the debt collector a 30 day demand to remove themselves from my credit report or I will file a lawsuit.
I did sent a DV letter almost 30 days ago but they are still reporting on me. They are charging 18% interest when they don't have the original contract and the max in my state is 12%.
Do you think I am being too nice by giving them 30 more days or should I just file the suit and not even warn them? I am suing both the debt collector and the attorney for FDCPA violations so can I sue each of them at the same time for a total of $2,000?

I'd be on those fools like a bad rash. Speak to an attorney about this matter.

Also remember that them filing a suit while a DV was in effect is clearly continued collection activity. You should also dispute with the CRAs and when they verify, you have have them on 3 more violations! That is $1000 for the FDCPA violations and $4000 FCRA violations just off the bat! (You likely can get them on more violations).
