The Blog of LegalTimes reports:
When Morgan Drexen Inc. found itself in the Consumer Financial
Protection Bureau's crosshairs, the company, which works with law firms
to provide debt relief services to consumers, initiated a response
that's proving to be both unusually aggressive and public.
The CFPB filed suit against
the company earlier this week in California federal court, alleging
that it charged illegal up-front fees and deceived consumers. But Morgan
Drexen, which is represented by Venable partner Randall Miller, beat
the agency to the punch, filing a suit in late July challenging the
CFPB’s constitutionality.
It’s also launched an extensive website detailing the litigation, Morgandrexenvcfpb.com, including a timeline, blog, document demands, video footage and press clips.
