I searched MacCrae's Blue Book for 609-779-6600 and found the following information:

They're not a law firm, they're a national debt collection agency, plain and simple. Laurence A. Hecker, Attorney at Law represents vCollect Global when they get sued.

Google "Laurence Hecker vCollect Global" and see what you find.

Hello all,

For all of you cybersurfers researching Mr Laurence (Lawrence, Laurance) Hecker's law office, rest assured he is still at some of his apparently old tricks. Again, a debt collection call for someone I don't remember having a card with, and certainly wasn''t going to pay. I received a call today from a Lindsey Davis. Let me tell you, I have never been talked down at like this since I was in middle school. Finally, I got so frustrated I fired back ... and unlike my saved brothers and sisters I have read about above, I wasn''t nice ... with guns blazing.

At this point, I think I got the better of this little girl, and she transfered me over to the Legal Assistant. He was semi-pleasant and "didn't want to argue or disagree with me", probably because his little girlfriend got an earful. He offered to settle my case "out of the legal junket" or whatever nonsense he was selling. He asked me a lot of personal questions about my wife, kids, job, etc and then my checking account (which I issued a stop payment for).

All throughout this, I was Google-ing in the background. I found the links listed, below, the most help and addresses he had been using or is using, also below.

Remind them as well that violations of your state's collection act is also a criminal act and a violation of your deceptive trade practices act. You could sue them under all of these including the fdcpa. Record their calls in future, or at least keep a very good detailed journal.

I need some information if someone can help on Laurence Hecker attorney at law. I had payday loan that I never paid back in full. I need make one interest payment to the payday loan company then they sold it another debt collection who now is I guess represented by Laurence Hecker. they contacted me and i paid them 50.00 then I had to put a stop payment on the other amount they were going to take out. I got message from a assistant with them saying it would be in my best interest to contact him that day. then i got letter saying i had 48 hours to send certified funds. any information would be so grateful. thanks

If you folks had paid your bills then you wouldnt have to deal with a collection agency.

Anyone with a brain knows that all collection agencies have attorneys on staff. Lawrence Hecker is indeed an attorney.

Lawstudent, I'd drop out if I was you. Calls recorded without permission by a homeowner are NOT admissable in a court of law.

No, I dont work for Hecker, but the plain simple truth is pay your bills deadbeats.

listen,just because a CA employs an attorney doesn't mean he can violate the FDCPA.as far as recordiing calls,it depends on your state.in closing you may not work for this bottomfeeder CA doesn't mean you are less of a troll.

I also have dealt with these people. It was really funny, they basically give you two options, you can pay or you can hang up "before" them and apparently that option means you refuse to pay. The lady would not hang up after about 45 minutes of talking. I found it funny that we would both say goodbye but 45 seconds later she would still be on the phone. I told her she could hang up first and finally she told me she was not at liberty to do so after round and round again i told her i didnt have the funds available to pay since they continued to want me to give them a check by phone regardless if i had the money or not. I thought that their options was not acceptable. She finally told me by not having enough money to pay them that I was refusing to pay and hung up. Now they are calling me and harrassing me, the newest voicemail was amusing, i love when people try to sound really serious and threatening...they are really annoying

I delt with a place called ASA Financial , they set me up and let me pay back my bill , and showed me some respect . Not all these places are that same

can anyone give more info on Hecker Law Offices??? I need to know if these guys are for real~someone please.....

To one and all, "Hecker" group is not for real as in they break every law in the book to grind money out of you. Go ahead and tell them that you are recording all calls. In the meantime have some fun and send them to to another phone number. There are a lot of downright illegal collection practices going on out there and they top the list.

Does anyone know if Hecker and ASA financial are the same?

An "Atty L Hecker 609-570-3039" called my home this afternoon to harass me. I am fairly sure it is one of those shady "debt collection" agencies who claim to be a law firm and who use intimidation and aggressiveness to scare people into paying "debts" that they do not in fact owe. I googled the name and number and came up with the following address in New Jersey:

Hecker Law Office
650 College Road E #1800
Princeton, NEW 08540
(609) 779-6600

Note however that the number on my caller ID was actually 609-570-3039. I called this number back several times to return the harassment and inquire about their practice. The same fellow who so rudely called me the first time called himself "Brian Knight" and actually admitted to being a rude person. It was VERY obvious that these fellows are operating a scam.

Do NOT pay them a penny. Several months ago I ran into a former coworker of mine at the local market. He said that he had switched jobs, and was currently in the "debt collection" business. He very plainly stated that his job involved calling innocent people and convincing them to pay off debts which did not really exist, and he enjoyed the easy money.

If anyone reading this happens to live near the above listed office address, it would be great if you could pick up a few dozen eggs and toilet paper rolls and proceed to decorate their office and employee cars parked outside. Give them a taste of their own medicine, if you will.

I too have received harassing calls. I called the number left on my voice mail. I don't have a credit card from the company they claim to represent. I got transferred to some idiot who actually thought I'd give them my Social Security number. I've yet to receive any warning from either the credit card company or this law firm. Major companies will contact you via snail mail asking for payment before turning anything over to a collection agency. These crooks are BS to the max. Blow them off! They claim they're trying to establish if you're the person they're looking for. Give them no personal information. They sound like ID theives to me...

Another name to put with the rest of the As* Ho***** from this firm, trying to collect a debt that was mostly interest and beyond the Statute of Limitations in my state. I told him this and then after the required yelling match followed I hung up. Taking any legal action in my case would automatically result in their loss and I will then have recourse to sue them. I explained this to "Chad" and hung up, luckily he gave me his NJ address so I know where to send my legal bill. Know Your Rights!

Oh they are good, they got me at work, I was busy and vulnerable and they prey on that. Something tipped me off...I guess it was the abusive manner in which they spoke to me. The scary thing was...they had my SS#. I looked them up and found all these articles. Thank you to those of you who took the time to write. I can't understand though how they are still conducting these scams after all these years?
