Asset Acceptance may have taken a judgment against you in a Texas court. You may have not known about the judgment until it appeared on a credit report or a title report when selling or buying a home. There are several options in releasing a judgment but settlement sometimes is the easiest, least expensive, and fastest option.
You may be required to settle a judgment from Asset Acceptance when you sale or purchase a home in Texas based on title company and lender guidelines. You may decide to settle an Asset Acceptance judgment yourself
While Asset Acceptance does not have to take less than what is owed, we often find that with a documented hardship with other factors a judgment creditor may take less than what is owed. The value of hiring our law firm is the experience, knowledge, and employees to assist you in settling out your judgment. We have often found that clients pay less and have the entire transaction closed sooner when we are hired. We offer a flat fee structure based on who the judgment creditor is. We do offer payment plans.
To hire us to help you settle your Asset Acceptance judgment we need:
- Be a Texas resident or have been a Texas resident when the judgment was created
- Contact us to discuss your situation including obtaining a copy of the judgment
- Sign an engagement agreement
- Complete a negotiation questionnaire

Today, we’re releasing our third Snapshot of Complaints Received from Servicemembers, Veterans and their Families. The report details the data and trends from consumer complaints we’ve received from members of the military community since July 2011.
Here are just a few highlights:
- Debt collection complaints have continued to rise since our last report, and now make up 39 percent of total complaints. It is our largest category of complaints from the military community.
- Credit reporting remains a top category of concern. 72 percent of these complaints are about incorrect information on credit reports. This remains a significant issue for the military community, one that we highlighted earlier this year.
- Student loans are another concern. 49 percent of these complaints are about problems dealing with a lender or servicer. In these complaints, we continue to see long-standing trends, such as servicemembers complaining about not being provided their Servicemembers Civil Relief Act rights.
This year our report also highlights our outreach efforts that allowed us to connect with thousands of members of the military community, as well as three of our enforcement actions that recovered millions of dollars for affected consumers, primarily servicemembers, veterans, and their families. These figures represent the positive impact of the work we continue to do on behalf of those who serve.
Problems with account services
Basic account servicing stands out as a significant area of concern for servicemembers. Most consumers can call their financial institution, visit a branch, or connect online to try and get the help they need to maintain their account. Unfortunately, for military personnel and their families, the realities of military life, including deployments, frequent moves, and a high operational tempo, can sometimes make access to those services extremely challenging.
We found that servicemembers were often subject to a variety of account maintenance or penalty fees, as well as account-access restrictions, which were triggered due to aspects of their military service.
These problems raise concerns that financial institutions may not have a true understanding of the servicing needs of their military customers and may lack proper procedures and protections for them. Detailed examples of servicemember experiences can be found in Section II of the report.
