Fast Track Debt Relief Violates Virginia Consumer Protection Law

I’m a bankruptcy lawyer, in Woodbridge Virginia. I see a lot of people ripped off by debt settlement scams, before they come to see me. Last month, a judge in Fairfax County agreed with me that Fast Track Debt Relief violated the Virginia Consumer Protection Act.

When the Sheriff knocks, is anybody home?

Figuring out who to sue in this case was a tangled mess. Our client saw an advertisement from Fast Track Debt Relief. Stacy Singer, on behalf of Fast Track Debt Relief, emailed back and forth with our client.

Stacy Singer sent this email on behalf of Fast Track. Her letterhead is Cornerstone. The contract is with Credit Advocates. When the sheriff knocks, who answers the door?


Stacy Singer listed Cornerstone Legal Group on her letter head, but she signed the contract on behalf of Credit Advocates Law Firm.  Her email letterhead was Cornerstone Legal Group. Stacy Singer listed three different debt settlement firms in just one email!

Credit Advocates is rated F by the Better Business Bureau.  It looks like they are out of business. Same with Cornerstone. What’s going on here?

It looks to me like Fast Track reels in the consumers, and then assigns the “debt settlement” work to somebody else.

We showed the court that the contract, with Credit Advocates, had a lot of false promises. And that there was no way it could work. And that Credit Advocates listed phony addresses, pretending they had lawyers in Virginia, where they didn’t.

But could we make Fast Track pay for the false promises of Credit Advocates?

The Virginia Consumer Protection Act helped us out. That law says we can go after sellers, suppliers, manufacturers and distributors of consumer services. So we were able to keep Fast Track in the case and get a judgment against them.

Fast Track seems to still be in business, and has a B+ from the Better Business Bureau. The judge said they owed $3400.44 to the consumer, and $1700 to my law firm. Credit Advocates sent us the check.

Credit Advocates claimed they had lawyers at these Virginia addresses, when they didn't.
