Who is Resurgent Capital Services (LVNV)?
When you are sued by Resurgent Capital Services (LVNV) in a debt collection lawsuit, you might be wondering who they are. If you don’t recognize the name of the company suing you, you probably wonder, “is Resurgent Capital legit?” First, you need to know who is LVNV Funding. LVNV Funding is a debt collection company who purchases defaulted credit card debt. Basically, when you can’t pay your credit card debt and the account goes into default, LVNV buys the debt for a discount and then sues you to collect the debt.

What to do if Sued by Resurgent Capital Services (LVNV)?
Are you feeling harassed by Resurgent Capital Services (LVNV)? If you are sued by Resurgent Capital Services (LVNV), then you need to find legal representation to help you reach a debt settlement and to defend you in a debt collection lawsuit. A debt settlement is a negotiation reached between the party being sued (the borrower) and the debt collector (lender) that the borrower will pay back a significantly reduced portion of the total amount of the debt either in a lump sum or over a period of time. Lenders favor debt settlements, because they would rather receive some funds from the borrower than have the borrower file for bankruptcy and receive nothing. Be aware of debt settlement “companies” as opposed to debt relief law firms. Debt settlement companies often charge significantly more, they are not a law firm – so they can’t represent the borrower in a lawsuit, and they are often so large that the borrower just becomes another number to them. Plus, debt attorneys are held to ethics and standard under the law. These large debt collection companies like Resurgent Capital Services have powerful teams of attorneys who do nothing but sue borrowers, you need an experienced debt attorney to help you get out of debt.
