Complaint:
In re Pressler & Pressler , LLP, XXXX XXXX XXXX I am a consumer that is dealing with an issue with the root cause originating with Pressler, Felt and Warshaw. 

I know that this order has expired but, it appears that they have violated the order while it was in effect as they filed a suit against me in XXXX XXXX 

Specifically and at a minimum it appears that they have violated 36 ( g ) and 39 ( c ) as they used a wrong address when filing a suit against me in XXXX XXXX and produced an affidavit that contained an inaccurate statement, meaning in my case that they affirmed service to wrong address - See below for relevant excerpts from the order. 
I contacted their client, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and they state that they had the correct address as of XX/XX/XXXX so they could have possibly be the source of the incorrect address that Pressler, Felt and Warshaw, LLC had on file. XXXX XXXX XXXX a collection agency working another case for the same client, had the correct address at the time as they were able to mail me in XXXX. Also, at that time the correct address was available on my credit report, showing an update in the fall of XXXX, 3 years prior to the suit. It seems like it would have taken minimal effort for them to confirm based upon methods or means proven to be historically reliable and accurate the Consumers correct identity and correct address The attorney that filed the suit, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, should have easily determined the correct address. 

With all of what I mentioned above, it strikes me as odd that they used the wrong address in another county. It benefits them as I did not know what happened for years and it is inconvenient for me living two counties away from the venue it was filed in to rectify this issue. 

I only learned of this suit when I received a copy of the judgment sent to me by XXXX XXXX XXXX in their attempt to collect the debt after it had been handed over to them from Pressler, Felt and Warshaw, LLC in XXXX XXXX 

Recently on XXXX I filed complaints against XXXX XXXX XXXX and Absolute Resolutions as they are potentially violating the FDCPA as well by threatening negative and/or legal action. 

These are my complaints filed so far XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX
