Specific Attorney Recommendations:
Sarah Poris
Attorney at Law
In 2006, Attorney Poriss opened her own office and expanded her practice to defending consumers being sued by their credit card companies. Most consumers ignore lawsuits seeking the collection of a debt, usually because they think they have no defenses because they owe at least some of the debt, or because they are confused or intimidated by the court system. However, it is possible to challenge credit card companies and to date, Attorney Poriss has saved her clients over $470,000*. Attorney Poriss’ goal is to make the court system accessible to the average person and to level the playing field between hard-working consumers and the credit card industry and its debt collectors.
