Civil & Consumer Litigation
[Trial] Attorney
|
|
I have
substantial experience in handling (primarily prosecuting) Fair Debt Practices Act (FDCPA) and related cases (e.g., Truth-in-Lending
Act (TILA), Fair Leasing Act, Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA/FACTA), RESPA, etc. Recently, for example, I settled a claim
in which my client received a [very subtle yet significant] misleading letter from a Collection Agency which left him confused
as how to respond to the payment demand (and would be likely to similarly confuse any consumer/debtor). (Please see attorney profiles at www.avvo.com and www.superlawyers.com for additional information)

Work ExperienceMember, The Law Office of Auden
L. Grumet, LLC (2002-Present) Litigation
Associate, Epstein Becker & Green, P.C. (1999-2002) Litigation Associate,
Greer, Klosik & Daugherty (1997-1999)
The first 3 years of my law career was devoted
to the practice of automobile Insurance Defense [for State Farm insureds](and the next 3-4 yrs. to products and premises liability
defense work), and I have substantial experience in various other areas of law pertaining to insurance, such as health insurance,
subrogation, UM, coverage disputes, first and third-party claims, etc
Recently (2008-09) I have handled
numerous real estate construction and lien related cases - both pre-litigation disputes and litigation - primarily as related
to materialman/subcontractor/contractor liens and actions to foreclose thereon (and damages, etc.). Thus, I have become very
familiar with the extremely convoluted nuances of such laws [in GA] which, it should be noted, changed rather substantially as
