Federal Lawsuits Against Debt Relief Companies

I've built an automated system that watches for new cases involving debt relief companies and publishes the information here as cases are filed, drawing from 364 companies I track through CourtListener.

This resource is useful for two audiences. For consumers: court records are a powerful way to evaluate any company you're considering. Patterns across cases can reveal whether a company's practices are isolated or industry-wide. For debt relief companies: the litigation your peers face is some of the most valuable business intelligence available — and companies rarely share it with each other. Seeing what types of cases are being filed, and why, gives you an early opportunity to evaluate your own practices before facing similar challenges.

I also track cases involving debt buyers — companies that purchase charged-off debt portfolios and collect on them. They are not debt relief providers, but they are frequently the adversary consumers face when dealing with old debts. Knowing their litigation history is directly useful if one of these companies is contacting you.

Coverage started February 27, 2026 for cases filed on or after February 20, 2026. I chose a clean baseline rather than backfilling historical cases. Every company in the debt relief space is covered — I do not target any individual company.

Parties to any case are welcome to contact me. If you are a plaintiff, defendant, or counsel in a case listed here and you would like to add a statement, correction, or update for readers, please reach out to me directly. I will publish it.
