I have been attempting to get a refund from The Barton Law Group for an overpaid garnishment. The debt collector was paid in full by payroll deductions in the amount of {$1000.00}. The original judgement was issued on XX/XX/XXXX. The first payment of XXXX was deducted from my pay on XXXXThe final payment was made on XX/XX/XXXX in the amount of XXXX. The creditor submitted another judgment for XXXX more payment on XX/XX/XXXX. The amount of the judgment was {$150.00} and was deducted from my pay. I have called The Barton Law Group for a resolution several times. On XX/XX/XXXX, my employer obtained a copy of the check, from XXXX, that was deposited into The Barton Law Group 's bank account. My employer, also, sent a copy of the check to XXXX at The Barton Law Group on XX/XX/XXXX by email. I have been told by representatives at the The Barton Law Group that they need to submit the information to their finance department because my informationwas not on the check. However, they still deposited the check. I'm still waiting on the refund or a follow-up from the debt collector.

My wages were garnished for the full amount of the judgement with proof on pay stubs and my employers payroll department producing proof of payment only for them to say that every payment received was forged and NSF. They turned around and put it right back on my credit report. Im not the only one they have done this to. Nobody is stopping them from this scam.
