I'm in Cali.
I took out an IPL back in 4/2006 for $300 from Midland Financial. At the same time, a company name BMG deposited another $250 into my acct. Since I got married, I switched accounts. Now I am in contact with a "MR. Hill" from the Law Firm OJ Lawal. He saying the whole thing about he's gonna have me picked up by the police if I don't pay and that he is not a CA, but a legal asst.
It turns out, BMG & Midland are the same comp. So Mr Hill is combining both amounts with interest $468 + $567= $1035. He agreed to lower the payment to $839 and pay 3x $280. I agreed and gave him mybanking info. (yeah, dumb move!) But he put me on hold, then he said the "paralegal" did not accept the $839, but he wants the full amount in payments. I told him I'd discuss it w/ my husband 1st.
I looked up "Lawal" from the threads and also online. On Matra, it said Oj Lawal & Assc. are in TX (which was confirmed by mr. hill) but they were listed as a "Sheet Metal manufacturing company. Lawal is also associated w/ AIS, LIghthouse and 1st Integrated something.
I have asked him to stop calling me at work, but he still does it. I that allowed? Also, can I demand to pay off one company at a time?

My suggestion is to send a cease and desist letter to this attorney with a request to validate the debt.
