Areas we serveConsumer protection & debt-defense lawyer for Appomattox County
Sued over a debt, facing wage garnishment, or fighting a credit-report error in Appomattox County? Krumbein Consumer Legal Services defends consumers in the General District Court and Circuit Court of Appomattox County — and across Virginia since 1999.
Krumbein Consumer Legal Services represents consumers throughout Appomattox County in matters under the federal Fair Credit Reporting Act and Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, and in debt-collection cases filed in the General District Court and Circuit Court of Appomattox County. We’re based in Glen Allen and have represented individual consumers in Virginia’s state and federal courts since 1999.
Most of the consumer cases we see from Appomattox County start the same way: a Warrant in Debt arrives — often from a debt buyer that purchased the account for pennies on the dollar — or a paycheck suddenly comes up short because a garnishment took hold before anyone explained the exemptions. Both situations have real defenses, and both are far easier to win before a default judgment is entered than after. The worst move is to ignore the paperwork; the best move is to have it reviewed while every option is still open.
