I received notice today that my lawsuit against Nickie’s attorney in Federal court was settled. The purpose of this lawsuit was to hold accountable the lawyer that ran my personal credit report online and used the information against me in court which is a major criminal no-no and a violation of privacy. There is a GAG order on this case but I imagine any good attorney can pull the records on it. I can say that I felt good about the outcome but I’m sure the other side did not but the official language is: “it settled on Confidential terms”.
Morale of the story though is that if you have an attorney opposing you, don’t assume they are following the law. Typically they are NOT and they make up things along the way. Usually they’ll also overreach and add things that the Judge never included in an order. Watch your back and pay attention to every detail because opposing counsel will make a LOT of mistakes and it’s up to YOU to catch them and hold them accountable.
