Dear Martha:

The site has been released by the court appointed receiver now that their assignment by the court has concluded. You may need to contact the Law Offices of Daniel J. Stermer directly to inquire about your unpaid claim.

I have also been scammed recently by the company Hess Kennedy Chartered, out of NEW YORK. I started a dept management program 32 months ago, under a different name, The Achievable. This company, The Achievable, switched names to Hess Kennedy Chartered several months ago. They no longer sent out payment statements and started skipping the payments to my credit companies, all the while still taking the money electronically from my checking account. I filed complaints with the BBB and called the customer service dept. DAILY at Hess Kennedy Chartered, in NEW YORK, with NO HELP. I started calling my creditors direct, and also making the payments to them. Hess Kennedy CONTINUED to take money from my checking account making me further in debt. The BBB responded that they would not be able to help in my situation because their case had been closed in FLORIDA, but I am in OHIO, dealing with the company who’s primary address is in NEW YORK. Anyone have a clue how I could get help now?

I found out about the scam going on about two years into paying $400+ a month which was directly coming out of my checking account. I was involved with The Campos Law Firm in New York. I live in Cincinnati, Ohio. I was told this was safe and that all four of my creditors were going to be a debt settlement over a 3 year period. Come to find out, they never paid any of them one dime. Now I have pending lawsuits against me and two liens on my house due to this matter. I am not rich. I have three small children, recently out of a job for the last 10 mos. due to breast cancer, five unexpected surgeries, chemo treatment, bilateral mastectomy and reconstruction on top of the other debt since this occured before my recent illness. This is absurd! They took all of us for a ride for sure! Laura Hess only gets a “slap on the wrist?” What about jail time? Disbarred for life? Unreal. I paid out a total of $5,000 over the course of two years and only received $1,200 in return. I paid this to their firm in good faith trying to avoid a bankruptcy. I have recently had no other choice but to file bankruptcy now. The whole thing I was trying to avoid in the first place! I am so angry about this! I will never know how these crooks get away with it?

I am shocked that Daniel Stermer the Receiver can lie to the court telling the court that the company is insolvent but then pay his consulting firm DSI over $100,000 this month.

Why are you lawyers not questioning this?

Hess should be permanently barred from practicing law. Five years is hardly a punishment for someone who set out out to lie, cheat, and steal from people in need. A curse on her and everyone who worked for Hess Kennedy.

For your information, one of the attorneys from Hess Kenndy, Lee Stern, is running the same scam out of Boca Raton. Go after him.

A good rule of thumb is not to trust those who contact you. They are at best a for-profit company looking to profit from your situation. At worst, you could be the next victim of a debt relief scam or identity theft. A good Better Business Bureau rating is not foolproof, but it is a good start. If they don’t have a good BBB rating, avoid them.

I beleive laura and Judge Rothschild were in it together, living on a beach somewhere out of the country now. I lost 4’000 in their scam. 3′rd time being ripped off by Florida companies so I will never do any business there again. No vacation either. I hope the whole state goes under water. I am going to contact my states department of justice to see if anything can be done. 2 credit card companies are after me now for debts that Laura was supposed to settle, my credit score is 570 now.
