Child Support
Under New York law, certain funds are exempt from attachment by most creditors. [1] In general, exemptions apply to 90% of your income earned within the last 60 days, state and federal benefits, spousal/child support, and a limited amount of recent payroll to meet basic living needs. For a full discussion of the available exemptions check our post: In New York, what personal property is exempt from Creditors.
Spousal Support
[1] In spousal support, alimony/maintenance and child support cases, exemptions do not apply. The state has the right to claim otherwise exempt funds to satisfy an outstanding support obligation.

Traffic Violations
Criminal justice debt: These are fines, fees, costs, and charges related criminal, traffic, andÂ municipal violations. They include traffic tickets, costs of prosecution against you for misdemeanors and felonies, and jury fees. Neglect these debts and you may lose your driver’s license, income, assets, or wind up in jail.
Fraud
GBL § 350 was enacted in 1963 to address weak enforcement of false advertising. Neither common law (case law) nor New York Penal law could combat false advertising. [53] New York's Attorney General welcomed help to “cope with the numerous, ever-changing types of false and deceptive business practices which plague consumers in our State.” [54] The result was General Business Law § 350, which was designed to beÂ “a strong deterrent against deceptive business practices,” to “supplement the activities of the Attorney General in the prosecution of consumer fraud complaints,” and to provide consumers with “an honest market place where trust prevails between buyer and seller.” [55]
Misdemeanors
Identity Theft
A client contacted us after she received a wage garnishment stemming from a judgment that had been obtained against her by LVNV Funding. The judgment was obtained in 2007 for about $6,000 and had rose to more than $11,000 in 2016 when the plaintiff attempted to garnish her wages. The client knew this was related to an identity theft that had occurred at least a decade prior, however, since so much time had lapsed, there was little documentation to prove the identity theft. We filed a Motion to Vacate which argued some flaws in the case, including confusing plaintiff designations, which could be a violation of the FDCPA under existing case law.

Business and Corporate Law

Business Disputes
We use research and evidence to refute those advertising claims and seek damages under New York General Business Law § 349 (Deceptive Acts and practices) and New York General Business Law § 350 (false advertising). Both statutes are designed to protect the consuming public against false and misleading advertising claims. Here is an in-depth analysis of New York law: The Ultimate Guide to False-Advertising Law in New York: 22 FAQs.
Business Transactions
Although a duty to disclose material information arises in direct business transactions, courts may impose that duty to disclose on a manufacturer who has exclusive knowledge of a product defect or danger.

Landlord-Tenant Disputes
New York Landlord-Tenant Law deceptively omitted rent control and stabilization laws and regulations. But New York’s highest court ruled that reasonable consumers would not expect every section to be current and accurate, especially given a disclaimer stating otherwise. The lower court erred, however, in ruling that GBL § 349 was inapplicable because the treatise was not

Personal Injury
What details and documentation support any damages claim based on a purchase price, invoices, receipts, or evidence of personal injury or emotional injury?
Medical Malpractice
Jesse earned his law degree (J.D.) and Master of Laws in Taxation (LL.M.) at New York Law School. After some years of high-intensity litigation in medical-malpractice cases, Jesse signed up as a court volunteer to help consumer debtors during the Great Recession. "It just felt like the right way to deploy my legal skills," says Jesse. "Helping so many people during a highly stressful financial crisis brings gratitude and empathy not found in other areas of law. It has been an absolute honor," he states.

Bankruptcy
Foreclosure
Home mortgage: Miss enough payments and you are looking at a foreclosure proceeding. Some states permit foreclosures without a court hearing. You may want to look for a nonprofit housing counselor in your city. Since it’s expensive to foreclose, lenders have their servicers work with you to get a solution before foreclosure (“loss mitigation”). For example, Covid-19 related options are in place with servicers for Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, FHA, VA, and RHS (“federally backed”).
Tax Law
Debt Collection
The Langel firm defends consumers against New York state court collection lawsuits brought by Unifund CCR, LLC. We defend against collection lawsuits, and wage garnishments, and bank seizures. In appropriate cases, we may take legal action Unifund CCR, LLC for violations of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, and other consumer laws laws.
