The Law Office of Patrick C. Burpee, LLC takes an aggressive approach to debt collection, tempered by ethics, professionalism and the law. The firm provides creditors with the highest level of representation at cost-effective rates. Although past performance is not indicative of future results, the firm has earned the reputation for achieving excellent results with the most difficult cases. The Testimonials speak for themselves.

While many firms will only handle large claims or large volume portfolios for corporate clients, the Law Office of Patrick C. Burpee, LLC handles even the small ones, for corporations and individuals. Many clients have sought representation through our office for the recovery of unpaid wages and small claim judgments in Washington. They have recovered not only their entire principal balance, but also accrued interest, costs and their attorney fees.

With home foreclosures and unemployment at record levels, we remain sensitive to the reality of our economic times and, for some, the reality of existing business relationships. Mr. Burpee uses sound judgment to identify opportunities for resolution of disputes that have arisen through existing commercial relationships, prior to litigation. When warranted, we work with the obligated parties based on our client’s wishes, negotiating reasonable repayment, forbearance agreements and confessions of judgments.

Most of the firm’s cases originate in Washington. In other words, the parties to the dispute are located in Washington or an out-of-state client is harmed in some way by a Washington business or individual. However, we also domesticate foreign judgments on behalf of out-of-state clients. Once domesticated, the sister-state judgment becomes just like the ones we handle everyday. If a judgment remains unpaid, we can move for examination of the judgment debtor, pursue writs of garnishments, as well as utilize other recovery techniques allowed by the civil rules in Washington. We can also coordinate with out-of-state counsel if a defendant moves outside our state.

Consumers are exposed everyday to collection harassment from collection agencies, debt buyers and unfortunately, even law firms. We know. We represent them when they are accused of stepping over the line. With increased scrutiny of the collection industry by state and federal lawmakers, begin the recovery process with an experienced fair debt collection attorney.
