Joe was recommended to us by a friend. I am not a litigious person by nature but we were in a difficult situation with our home that was being built. Joe was able to help work through our issues in a very professional manner. After closing, there was an issue with the documents provided to us by the title company. Joe stepped up again and was able to resolve our issues very quickly. If you’re ever in a tough spot and need an expert real estate lawyer, Joe is who you need to contact.

I called this law firm from out of state and was fortunately connected with Kevin Bischoff. Kevin immediately understood the gravity of my situation and set about to find the best possible solution. Kevin is a sincere, compassionate, intelligent person. He listened to my concerns and opinions throughout. He is a problem-solver with a can-do attitude and is very diligent. He was always easy to get in touch with and he kept me informed of the progress in my case. I would highly recommend Kevin for any situation.

I had no clue how to file a foreign judgement in another state, I looked on line and found Kevin Bischoffs reviews and they are all excellent. It is my privelige to write a letter of recommendation about him. Kevin is a very intelligent, hard working and caring attorney who has gone above and beyound for me in my case. He cares about his clients. He would always keep me informed by email or phone and always got back to me asap. Kevin has helped me through a very difficult situation and I'm happy to say that I'm now getting monthly payments from the foreign judgement which I never would have received without his persistence and high knowledge of knowing what he's doing! I highly recommend him.

I was very impressed with Mr. Bischoff's professionalism. Although I dealt with him from a distance (Texas) , his demeanor was very friendly and his patience as I explained my side of the problem, I felt as if I was speaking to a long time friend. I felt that I was in good hands with someone who was trustworthy.

Justin was very straight forward from the first meeting we had. He was very helpful in getting my bankruptcy filed and the process was quick and easy with his instructions. He went above and beyond, even provided me with a great reference to get a new vehicle the day my bankruptcy was filed. I would definitely recommend working with Justin Riley!

I called for a consultation with Marlon Bates, ot expecting much. I was having troubles trying to figure out my options and routes needed for adverse possesion/heirship/ect. He gave me 3+ more ideas options than ANY other real estate attorney in Utah! He was extremely thorough during our call, explaining everything and answered ALL of my questions (even though many sounded dumb coming from a young woman in her 20s).
I guarantee this: If I EVER need a real estate attorney, he is the FIRST on my lost.
Honestly, I feel like I owe him $400 just for his free consultation!

Attorney Marlon Bates went above and beyond in advising me and drafting an agreement to modify and modification to easement for my house purchase and I'm 100% sure I would not have been able to go through buying my first house without his help.
This was my first every need for an attorney, so I found Marlon through just the regular online search. After sending inquiry to over half dozen attorneys I found, Marlon was the very first to respond with immediate availability. He spent more than an hour on our consultation call, providing more than I was hoping to learn and get advice on the my easement situation. He left on a family vacation the week after but he was still very responsive to my questions and when I decided to move forward with the house with only left few days till diligence deadline, he was able to provide me with the perfect agreement and easement modification draft that I needed to close on my house with a peace of mind. In addition, he was able to clearly outline the risks and the steps that I needed to know and take to fully implement the contract and the modification.
Buying my first house with easement issues was a very scary decision and I would have never gone through buying this house if it wasn't for the reassuring consultation and the contracts and modification drafts that Marlon provided. I would go through this all over again with his help.
Ultimately, I ended up with a better term on the house and more favorable modifications to the easement than I would have initially accepted on the house.

This attorney assisted me regarding questions on statutes of limitations for small claims landlord matters. There was no Utah Code per se regarding limitations of actions. Thus, I learned I had more time to file the claim as Shane explained things to me and listened and responded attentively with a phone call out of the blue.

James Dunkelberger was my litigator on a suit I filed against an errant Uncle who was trustee of my Grandpa's estate. Said Uncle ran to the "No. 1" law firm in the state to defend our suit. When that "didn't work" Uncle ran to the "No. 2" law firm in the State. Hilarity ensued!
It was a 15 month fight into which both James and I each put a lot of time but in the end the beneficiaries on my side got 87% of what their full inheritance would have been and that's a lot better than some on Errant Uncle's side ended up with.
My brief take away is that I would never hire one of those "Big Firms." What you need is a good facts and a great lawyer who is honest, smart, clever and professional (did I say smart?).
It was a long slog but we had good facts and James is a great lawyer and all of those things above. He was instrumental to our favorable outcome.

Our company found itself the defendant of an action that put significant and unanticipated financial strain at a time when we were attempting to double our capacity. Ted Cundick was our guide, studied resource, and pragmatic problem solver through our very complicated matter. His representation of our company was crucial. While very seldom does either party "win" entirely, Mr. Cundick methodically guided our case to resolution that definitely was a win for us. It is with pleasure that we would recommend Ted Cundick to those seeking an appropriately aggressive problem solver.

I could not be happier with the way James handled my case. I felt as though I was the only client he had and all his time was devoted to me. James is very response to email or calls. Even on weekends I know he would get back to me. I actually was shocked when he responded to me on a Saturday. I felt as I had a friend representing me not not a lawyer, that's what it felt like. I could trust him as a friend trust another friend. I would recommend James to anyone that is looking for the help the deserve. I have already recommended a friend to him because I know I can trust him with friends and family. I would use him again if needed.

I had the pleasure of meeting and being represented by James Bergstedt. I was severly injured by a driver who was operating his car while under the influence (DUI). I was very unfamiliar with my legal rights in this type of situtaion. Mr. Bergstadt handling of my case was impeccible. He kept me informed throughout the process and was an excellent advocate on my behalf. He was highly supportive, professional and adept in representing me through the legalities of this difficult experience. I would highly recommend Mr. Bergstedt to any of my friends and/or associates.

Jim Bergstedt is an excellent attorney! As a physician, it is very difficult to understand all the implications and legal jargon of a contract for employment. My contract was 13 pages long. Jim Bergstedt did a phenomenal and extensive job reviewing my contract. He had numerous suggestions and recommendations, of which several were well taken at the institution where I have accepted a position.
Jim Bergstedt has also been pivotal in the formation of my Trust in order to protect my assets and has also worked on my family's Will. He is very knowledgeable and bright. He works hard. He makes sure all questions are completely answered. He is very kind and personable. It has been a very wonderful experience to work with Jim Bergstedt. I would recommend Jim Bergstedt to anyone for pretty much any legal matters.

On January 23, 2019, I retained Aaron Garrett of Nonprofit Legal, Salt Lake City, UT., to handle a case for me in the appellate court. He said he would take on the matter and personally handle the case. His and his firm's representation is a far cry from the claim that he made when taking on the case. I then was Prose to the supreme court and Mr. Garrett withdrew leaving me on my own. On March 11, 2019, I again retained Aaron Garrett being unable to afford anyone else since he had required a retainer and had some of it remaining. This matter was on a related case in district court. Mr. Garrett assured me that he would personally represent me but prior to the hearing, he assigned it to an underling that was ill prepared for the hearing and failed to properly represent me and was mouse-like in court. The opposing party's attorney shredded her. There are still unresolved items related to that case which Mr. Garrett has been paid to handle. He refuses to finish the job. Mr. Garrett's lack of communication and commitment to clients is questionable. My advise, you get what you pay for. Hire a more aggressive attorney and law firm and forget this one.

Mr. Booth was slow to respond and missed important deadlines. Seems only worried about his payments, even when the work performed were less than quality. When you have to start almost every sentence with "Sorry" something is wrong. Could have cost me $100 of thousands of dollars. I have had many attorneys over the years (30+) of successful business. I hired him on a referral as an "expert" in a RE foreclosure situation. This has been my poorest experience thus far. FYI: I paid the bills and moved on

What a Debt Collection Lawyer Can Do for You
A debt collection lawyer helps individuals and businesses navigate legal matters related to debt collection. Whether you’re a creditor seeking to recover unpaid debts or a debtor facing aggressive collection actions, a debt collection lawyer can provide valuable assistance. These lawyers help creditors pursue legal action to collect overdue debts and ensure compliance with debt collection laws. On the debtor’s side, they help defend against unlawful collection practices, negotiate repayment plans, or file for bankruptcy if necessary.
If you’re dealing with a debt collection issue, a lawyer can ensure your rights are protected and work toward a resolution that aligns with your financial or business needs.
When Should I Hire a Debt Collection Lawyer?
You should consider hiring a debt collection lawyer if you are facing any of the following situations:
-
For Creditors:
- Unpaid debts: If you’re a creditor (such as a business or individual) with unpaid invoices, loans, or accounts receivable, a lawyer can help you pursue legal action to recover the debt.
- Debtor refuses to pay: When a debtor is unwilling or unable to make payments, a lawyer can assist with filing lawsuits, securing judgments, and enforcing those judgments to collect the debt.
- Negotiating repayment plans: If you’re willing to work with a debtor to arrange a payment plan, a lawyer can negotiate and draft a legally enforceable agreement.
- Legal representation in court: If a debtor disputes the debt or countersues, a lawyer can represent you in court and ensure your legal interests are protected.
- Securing liens or garnishments: A lawyer can help you secure liens on a debtor’s property or garnishments on their wages to recover the owed debt.
-
For Debtors:
- Facing debt collection lawsuits: If you’ve been sued by a creditor or collection agency, a lawyer can represent you in court and help you defend against the claim or negotiate a settlement.
- Debt collection harassment: If creditors or debt collection agencies are harassing you or violating your rights under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA), a lawyer can help stop the harassment and potentially sue for damages.
- Negotiating debt settlements: If you owe a significant amount of money but want to avoid bankruptcy, a lawyer can negotiate with creditors to reduce the total amount owed or set up a payment plan.
- Disputing a debt: If you believe a debt is incorrect or have been wrongfully targeted by debt collectors, a lawyer can help you dispute the claim and provide evidence to resolve the matter.
- Bankruptcy options: If your debts are overwhelming and you’re unable to repay them, a debt collection lawyer can help you explore bankruptcy as an option for debt relief.
Hiring a lawyer early in the process can help you protect your financial interests and avoid escalating legal issues.
What Does a Debt Collection Lawyer Do?
A debt collection lawyer provides a variety of services depending on whether they are representing the creditor or the debtor. Their responsibilities often include:
-
For Creditors:
- Filing lawsuits: A lawyer can file a lawsuit against a debtor who has failed to pay what they owe. This includes preparing and submitting legal documents, representing you in court, and pursuing judgments.
- Negotiating settlements: If the debtor is willing to settle, the lawyer can negotiate a payment arrangement or reduced settlement that ensures you recover some or all of the debt.
- Securing judgments and enforcement: After obtaining a court judgment, a lawyer can help enforce it through methods like wage garnishment, bank levies, or property liens.
- Reviewing contracts and agreements: A lawyer can review your contracts and lending agreements to ensure that they comply with the law and are enforceable if a debtor defaults.
-
For Debtors:
- Defending against debt collection lawsuits: If you’re being sued by a creditor, a lawyer can challenge the lawsuit, dispute the debt’s validity, or negotiate a more favorable settlement.
- Stopping harassment: If debt collectors are using unlawful practices to collect a debt (such as threatening you or contacting you excessively), a lawyer can intervene and protect your rights.
- Negotiating debt relief: A lawyer can negotiate with creditors to reduce the total amount of debt you owe or develop a manageable payment plan that suits your financial situation.
- Disputing inaccurate debts: If a debt is not valid, a lawyer can help you gather evidence to dispute the claim and prevent further collection actions.
- Filing for bankruptcy: If your debts are overwhelming, a lawyer can advise you on whether filing for bankruptcy is the best option and help you through the process.
How Are Debt Collection Lawyers Paid?
Debt collection lawyers typically charge for their services in different ways depending on the complexity of the case and whether they represent a creditor or debtor. Common payment structures include:
- Hourly rate: Many debt collection lawyers charge by the hour, with rates typically ranging from $150 to $500 or more, depending on the lawyer’s experience and the case’s complexity. Hourly fees are common when the lawyer is representing either party in litigation or negotiation.
- Contingency fee: For creditors, some lawyers work on a contingency fee basis, meaning they only get paid if they successfully recover the debt. Their fee is typically a percentage of the recovered amount, usually ranging from 20% to 40%.
- Flat fee: For specific services, such as reviewing a contract, drafting a demand letter, or defending a straightforward debt collection lawsuit, a lawyer may charge a flat fee.
- Retainer: For larger or ongoing cases, a lawyer may require a retainer fee ranging from $2,000 to $10,000, depending on the complexity of the case and the expected duration.
It’s important to discuss fees with your lawyer during the initial consultation and understand the total cost of their services before proceeding with your case.
How Much Does a Debt Collection Lawyer Cost?
The cost of hiring a debt collection lawyer depends on whether you are a creditor or debtor, the complexity of the case, and the lawyer’s experience. General cost estimates include:
- Hourly rates: Most debt collection lawyers charge between $150 and $500 per hour. Complex cases involving litigation or large amounts of money may result in higher legal fees.
- Contingency fees: If the lawyer works on a contingency basis, they typically charge between 20% and 40% of the recovered amount. For example, if you recover $10,000 and the contingency fee is 30%, the lawyer would take $3,000.
- Flat fees: For simpler services like drafting a demand letter or responding to a debt collection lawsuit, flat fees may range from $500 to $2,500, depending on the work required.
- Retainers: For larger or ongoing cases, a lawyer may require a retainer fee ranging from $2,000 to $10,000, depending on the complexity of the case and the expected duration.
Always ask for a detailed cost estimate during your consultation to avoid surprises and ensure that the services fit your budget.
Top Questions to Ask a Debt Collection Lawyer
Before hiring a debt collection lawyer, it’s important to ask the right questions to ensure they have the experience and expertise to handle your case. Key questions to ask include:
-
What experience do you have with debt collection cases?
Make sure the lawyer has experience handling cases similar to yours, whether you’re a creditor or debtor. -
How do you charge for your services?
Clarify whether the lawyer charges by the hour, on a contingency fee basis, or a flat fee, and ask for a detailed estimate of the total cost. -
What is the likelihood of success in my case?
Ask the lawyer for an honest assessment of your case and the potential outcomes. -
How long will the process take?
Debt collection cases can take time, so ask the lawyer how long they expect the process to last, from filing the claim to recovering the debt or resolving the dispute. -
What are my legal rights?
Ask the lawyer to explain your rights as a creditor or debtor, including protections under laws like the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA). -
Will you personally handle my case?
In larger firms, junior attorneys or paralegals may handle parts of the case. Make sure you know who will be managing your case.
How to Check the Credibility of a Debt Collection Lawyer
To ensure you are hiring a reputable debt collection lawyer, take the following steps to verify their credentials and track record:
- Verify their bar status: Check with your state bar association to confirm that the lawyer is licensed to practice law and has no history of disciplinary actions.
- Look for debt collection experience: Review the lawyer’s website or professional profile to ensure they specialize in debt collection law and have successfully handled cases like yours.
- Read client reviews and testimonials: Look for client reviews on platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google to see what previous clients have said about the lawyer’s professionalism and ability to handle debt collection cases.
- Ask for references: A reputable lawyer should be able to provide references from past clients who have worked with them on debt collection matters.
- Check for certifications or memberships: Look for certifications or memberships in organizations like the National Creditors Bar Association (NCBA) or other relevant associations that focus on debt collection law.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To get the most out of your first consultation with a debt collection lawyer, it’s important to come prepared with relevant documents and information. Here’s what you should bring:
-
For Creditors:
- List of outstanding debts: Bring a detailed list of the debts owed to you or your business, including invoices, contracts, or other supporting documentation.
- Previous communication with the debtor: Provide copies of any emails, letters, or phone call logs showing attempts to collect the debt.
- Contracts or agreements: Bring any contracts or agreements related to the debt, as they may be critical in proving your case.
- Judgment information (if applicable): If you’ve already obtained a court judgment against the debtor, bring the judgment documents and any enforcement attempts.
-
For Debtors:
- Debt collection letters or notices: Bring any correspondence from creditors or collection agencies, including demand letters and collection notices.
- Payment records: Provide proof of any payments made toward the debt, including receipts, canceled checks, or bank statements.
- Debt validation or dispute documentation: If you’ve disputed the debt or requested validation, bring copies of the dispute letters and the creditor’s response.
- Legal summons or lawsuit documentation: If you’re facing a lawsuit, bring the court summons, complaint, and any legal documents related to the case.
By preparing thoroughly for your consultation, you can help the lawyer assess your situation more effectively and provide the best legal advice tailored to your needs.
