JimKutkowski has not posted anything to support that conclusion. In fact, it is very easy to discover it is not true. But, so what if he was a debt collection attorney?
Just pointing out that this person might be at least sympathetic to the debt collector's side of an argument. It is good to know what perspective people have when they post on this forum. I can sniff them out quite well at this point, since I have a lot of experience in these matters by this point. I am not saying they can't post on here, just that people may want to know what perspective they are coming from.
Creditors have a right to sue and get judgements when debtors default and there is nothing wrong with attorneys taking their cases, even if the debtor is currently collection proof. If a credtors' attorney wanted to post here and answer questions from a creditor's perspective, he/she would be welcome as long as he/she was respectful and followed forum rules.
In a lawsuit, the plantiff is often required to personally serve the defendant. If the defendant is an individual, their home is the first logical place to try to serve them.
If the kids ask questions, all that needs to be said is that the person was there to deliver some important documents. Or, if the children were of appropriate age and the parent cared to be a little more open about the situation, they could take the opportunity to teach their children about debt and the legal process. Your friend should not be hiding his financial difficulties from his wife.
What I am saying is that isn't it funny how it is fine to send a process server to the debtor's home, but it is somehow horrible to send a letter to the attorney's home?
Animal Farm is an allegorical and dystopian novel by George Orwell, .... a single phrase: "All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others".
The attorney did not send a process server to your friend's home to rattle his cage. He sent him there as part of standard legal procedure.
Of course it would creep them out. You took a normal business and legal transaction and made it personal. There was no reason to contact the attorney at home.
So, you think it is okay to scare an attorney into withdrawing from a case?

So, I would say it worked quite well.
