Minnesota debt buyer and collector Debt Equities, LLC, must pay nearly $32,000 to resolve a Fair Debt Collection Practices Act lawsuit in Minnesota. Earlier this year, Debt Equities offered judgment for $15,000 (PDF). Just today, Magistrate Judge Keyes ordered Debt Equities to pay an additional $16,700.42 as attorney fees and costs (PDF).
Judge Keyes also said some very nice things about me:
Mr. Glover is obviously a skilled practitioner in the field of consumer law and has developed an excellent reputation in his field . . . .
Great result!

Congrats on the win. Too bad about the rate reduction though; were you expecting to get attorneys’ fees asked for?
High five!
@Noah: It seems like judges rarely give all the time asked for at the rate proposed. All around, we were quite happy with the result.
Well done!
