A Law Firm or a Collection Agency in Disguise?
While Rubin & Rothman is technically a law firm, its day-to-day function mirrors that of a high-volume collection agency. The firm uses New York’s court system as a tool for debt collection, often filing thousands of mass-produced lawsuits simultaneously.
Once Rubin & Rothman obtains a court judgment, they can:
-
Serve information subpoenas to locate your assets
Despite being a law firm, most calls are handled not by attorneys, but by collection agents trained to pressure consumers into paying debts—sometimes disputed debts.
Rubin & Rothman and FDCPA Violations
Rubin & Rothman has previously been sued for violating the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA), a federal law that protects consumers from unfair, deceptive, or harassing debt collection tactics.
Under the FDCPA, you may be entitled to recover:
-
Up to $1,000 in statutory damages
-
Actual damages, including emotional distress
-
Attorney’s fees and costs
At The Law Offices of Robert J. Nahoum, P.C., we handle FDCPA cases with no out-of-pocket costs to clients. If a debt collector breaks the law, we make sure they pay the price—not you.
