Oliveri & Associates agreed to pay $415,000 to resolve claims it attempted to collect debts secured by liens before those debts became due.Â
The settlement benefits individuals who had a continuing lien placed on their property by Oliveri & Associates where the company attempted to collect amounts that accrued after the lien filing after Sept. 9, 2017.Â
Plaintiffs in the class action lawsuit claim the firm violated the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA) and the Maryland Consumer Protection Act with continuing liens. These liens were officially outlawed by Maryland’s Supreme Court in March 2021.
