'It's not me!' Surprise financial billing can be attached to you without warning

- Surprise financial billing can show up in your name or on your property. Judgment liens are ordered through the courts, but a man in South Euclid said they had the wrong guy.
The original law firm should be sued for harrassment.
Why he didn't sue the attorney who wrongly filed a judgment against him and wouldn't clear it up is beyond me. He's too nice of a guy. I am so glad he got it cleared up, but clearly someone in the attorney's office was negligent and this should have never happened. When my husband and I bought our first house, there was a guy with a similar name, but different middle initial who took out a bunch of loans and never paid them back. My husband just had to sign a legal document saying he wasn't the other guy and we were done with it.
He’s not too nice, he’s just trying to live his life, taking care of an issue and moving on.
Not everyone is out for blood or vengeance, counter what some may belief.
This is how reporting is supposed to work. Good job channel 5!
Is there no consequences for the attorney who attached the lien to the wrong person? At the very least he damaged his original client who will never get paid by the wrong guy. Shouldn’t this innocent guy have recourse against the incompetent attorney for his time and damage to his reputation.
Why does it take a news station to clear up something that any honest company could have done if they wanted to? Because the law firm that made the lean wanted to stick it to whom ever they could to get their fee~! Shalom
And the 2 attorneys didn't know what to do? Just a phone call?
I have had problems with someone using my phone number and had some medical treatment. They gave them my phone number, and I started getting calls from these treatment hospitals. The place wasn't in my state. Bills were for some other guy, not my name. I called and told them stop don't worry, they would correct. They would hand to collecting agencies and start over again. This went on for a year, and finally, after blocked their number stoped. Then another Medical facilitie started calling me again from out of state and not my name. I probably got over 30 calls. You can't get this fixed by phone.
Criminals are put on pedestals in America
Similar thing happened with my wife. We went to sell our house and the title company said she owed over $10,000 in judgments. She has a common name and it clearly wasn’t her. It eventually got resolved.
I hope he didn’t pay the attorneys.
Guy's attorney: sorry we don't know how to resolve this problem (after 1 year of 'working' on it)
TV guy: pick up phone, dial, talk, resolved.
maybe his original attorney can just join the news station and learn
That's pure bs. That's not due process. Whoever put that on his house without first checking if it's the right guy or not needs to be sued.
I cannot understand how the law works in the USA.
Neither can we...
Hey news 5. We just went thru this with the state.same name different ss numbers . Going on 6 years
I have a unique last name, but my brother is a deadbeat. Me and my adult children have been harassed for years by collection agencies. My son almost had his car towed by a company attempting to repossess my brother's car.
This country is a mess! I would sue all parties involved for fraud and punitive damages. I'd even sue the county and county employees that recorded this lien.
I would sue that law firm and the court system they need to make sure they have the right person before they put a lien on property!!
They can steal your deed and you can't get that resolved even when its proven fraud.
I think the bank that holds 1st Lien on my home with 75000 HELOC (0 balance) would disagree with that.
@@g.t.richardson6311 paid off homes are vulnerable. Those inherited. They're not after a mortgaged property.
@@mamatrain100 very true
But my HELOC even if zero is first lien
So the lesson is forget hiring an attorney and go straight to the media
It'll be a cold day in hell before I pay a single penny for a debt that is not mine.
I love these story’s…..😀🇺🇸
Nice work News5
How did his attorney NOT get this fixed. Lawyers have no problems calling other attorneys.
this guy was taken advantage of by the Lien company, and then two attorneys. there is no way a few phone calls and threat of a lawsuit wouldn't have fixed this. one attorney worked on this for over a year?!? come on now.
Build your credit up high enough then DUMP that investment right.
Scary as hell
How was the news able to solve this but two lawyers couldn’t
The reason why things like this happen is because big business had paid of the government to allow the business to very easily take advantage of people with no consequences.
He paid lawyers to get this solved...one was on this case for a year (according to Paul), and they got nowhere. You guys make a few phone calls and....VIOLA!....problem solved? Either Paul was not accurate about how much time he spent and how his lawyers was on this for a year....OR......Paul was taken to the cleaners by the lawyers he hired. Fortunately for him, the people who gave him the runaround did not want to be on the evening news as bad actors, thus problem solved......quickly.
I think if this ever happens to me I’ll do some research about who is the local investigates reporter for my metro area and use there name to make inquiries and say we are publishing a story about them
Soooooooo what happens IF your not and will never be able to her legal representation???
Becsuse its TO expencive
Love the whole it's not my issue or job. Law offices have people that resurch things. This was just laziness.
How is this legal?
Wow
Too bad he does NOT have the race card to play in his deck.
