I've noticed that if you are sued by a Law Firm like Deanna Natale for a collection account these firms often do only collections and nothing else.

Recently I was sued by a company called Razor Capital LLC while searching for others being sued by this Company at the Ontario courts I found over 391 cased by this Company and only one Law Firm Gasee, Cohen & Youngman (GCY) whose lawyers Kevin S Klayman was the Lawyer in all these cases, it appears that they do only collections.

I don't think anyone who has a serious case would hire lawyers like this since I would say in my opinion they are dishonest. The case of Deanna Natale brings it out in the open so that people like know more about it and what is legal and not legal. Its actually help me since I am now considering filing a complaint with the Law Society against this Lawyer.

More people need to speak out so that these type Lawyers.

Mark Silverthorn's video about him being sued by Deanna Natale for defamation... I don't know... Mark Silverthorn is a smart lawyer... I think he might have thought about the ramifications of him splashing Deanna Natale's name all over the place...

I'm really glad that we're able to get this out in the open.

Think you've got problems with phoney "draft" statements of claim from Natale Law Offices? Poor Mark Silverthorn got one from Deanna Natale on Nov. 26, 2010, for $550K. I think the document arrived about 4 months early though as April 1 would have been a more appropriate date.

(Keep on trucking Silverthorn!)

Heads up, collection lawyers!

As you can see from the Law Society of Upper Canada's Discipline Committee's "Upcoming Hearings for January webpage," Deanna Natale's is scheduled for January 11&12. See Page 20 of 33.

DEANNA LYNN NATALE
From: Town of Markham, Ontario
First hearing: January 11 and 12, 2011
LSUC Counsel: Amanda Worley
Lawyer’s Counsel: Mark A. Lapowich and William M. Trudell
Particulars of alleged professional misconduct from the Law Society’s Notice of Application filed June 26, 2009:

1. You failed to act with integrity and good faith and encourage respect for the
administration of justice in the manner by which you used demand letters and draft statements of claim as part of your debt collection activities, in breach of Rules 4.01(6), 4.06(1) and 6.01(1) of the Rules of Professional Conduct.

2. You failed to assume complete professional responsibility for your practice and failed to directly and effectively supervise the staff of your law office to whom collection activities were delegated, in breach of Rule 5.01(2) (old and new) of the Rules of Professional Conduct.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is a landmark case, at least for Ontario, in that collection lawyers will, from now on, think long and hard before making false legal threats including sending out misleading or phoney court documents. What are outfits like Pomer & Boccia and Global Credit and Collections gonna do now? Read on.

Legally speaking, these are minor transgressions compared with those of others on the docket, and so she'll likely only get a slap on the wrist. But she won't do it again - we hope!

The contraventions alleged by the LSUC (Rule 5.01(2)) are in agreement with those advocated by a previous blogger on this thread. The LSUC's Rules of Professional Conduct were updated since this thread began (back in 2007) so the breaches in Sections 4.01(6), 4.06(1) and 6.01(1) refer to the new Rules only.

What is needed next is enforcement with respect to collection agencies making false legal threats. In fact, they may dramatically increase because agencies and banks will no longer have collection lawyers in their employ to do it for them with impunity.

As long as Brian Pitkin remains head of the Debt Regulation Unit at Consumer Affairs, collection agencies can rest assured there will be no consequences for making illegal threats or breaking other rules of the Collections Act. The only solution is to make a request to the Office of the Premier for his resignation. Bloggers are welcome to complain on this, or any other forum, about their most loathed collection agency, but no one here has any authority to take action.

Woops! Duplicate Post.

In contrast, viewing the blog on Natale's website, all her customers appear to be one big amorphous satisfied blob. All are uniformly relieved by the financial and moral resolution she and her friendly staff have brought into their lives while simultaneously being thrilled by their knowledge and professionalism.

Not much adds up on Natale Law Offices website including Deanna Natale's 2 credit card payment calculations below. No wonder they're always screwing up the amounts they're trying to seize from widows and orphans.

Whoever could she be talking about; and why didn't she sue the SOB if it wasn't true? After all, all she does for a living is sue and threaten to do so with phony documents, intimidation and threats.

Noteworthy is how she couches her words.

(Hmmm.... Probably just a coincidence.....Nah...couldn't be?)

What false and misleading information would that be?

Spoken like a true Natale employee but I think I can answer your complaint in 3 words: Five Star Mortgage. Enough said?

Silverthorn may have sent out 1 or 2 or 3 or... of those fake documents in his time, but he's not doing that now. Was he ousted by Global when Natale stormed out of TCR in Christmas of 2006; or did he leave voluntarily? Irrespective of his motives, he's helping out now and if he can help discipline Pitkin and Natale, it'll be a big boom for consumers.

Besides what motives do you and Natale have for "helping " Consumers?
Suing crippled widows and cancer patients living on dog food for their rent money. Make no mistake, the principal market of Natale Law Offices are the sick, the unemployed and the downtrodden. Easy pickings. Is that an admirable motive?

What answer do you have?

Penny123,

We are aware of Mark Silverthorns past. There are an estimated 70 million visas and MasterCard’s in circulation in Canada. The majority of cardholders should not have been approved. I believe the creditors should take over 50% of the responsibility for handing out cards to people that don't work and for not verifying their incomes by requesting your last years income tax return. If certain measures were taken by the creditors; I believe the amount of cards in circulation would be less then 20 million.
