Do you have a judgment from
Credigy Receivables Inc.?
If you're reading this page, chances are you are one of the thousands of people that has been sued in New York City by Credigy Receivables Inc. Many of these lawsuits have resulted in default judgments against unsuspecting consumers that were unaware of legal action being brought against them. Credigy has brought a bulk of their lawsuits in New York between the years 2006 and 2014.
Even if Credigy Receivables is not appearing on your credit report, that doesn't mean that they don't have a valid judgment. Judgments in New York can generally be enforced for up to 20 years through the Marshal's and Sheriff's abilities to freeze bank accounts and garnish wages. Each year, the judgment continues to accrue 9% in statutory interest.

Example Settlement with Credigy Receivables
The Law Office of Simon Goldenberg PLLC was retained to assist a client with resolving a frozen bank account that was the result of an judgment. At the time that our office was retained, the judgment was assigned to Main Street Acquisition Corp by Credigy Reveivables, as assignee of HSBC Bank. With interest, the balance accrued to ~$7,000. The lawyer collecting on the judgment was Todd Houslanger. As a result of our representation, we were able to negotiate a conditional release of $1,000 to settle the judgment in full. Upon remitting the settlement payment, the remainder of our client's bank account was released, and the judgment is vacated.

In a case from 2010 in North Carolina (which is unrelated to our law firm), Credigy Receivables Inc. was order to pay $26,000 to a person that was sued on a debt that was originated by identify theft. Although the attorneys for Credigy argued that they had a reasonable basis to execute the judgment based on the information provided to them by the predecessor-in-interest, the court found that they never had a basis to execute the judgment.
