Richard J Koury II Attorney Bottom feeder and petty bully, will stalk you for a few dollars ripoff Independence Missouri
I will start by saying I pay all my bills and have a clean credit report so this is not an excuse to get out of paying.
In 2000 I rented a dump of an apartment and ended up staying at my boyfriends house most nights. The tenants above and next to me played music till dawn most nights and smoked dope heavily which had a strong odor throughout the complex. No help from management on the problems. Needless to say I wanted out of my lease and left 2 months before my lease expiration.
In 2005 (5 years after) I receive a call from a Richard Koury Law Office about a lawsuit wanting to collect over $1000.00 for breach of contract. I asked for them to send the paperwork.
They found my cell phone number by calling my 80 year old grandfather telling them they were a former employer needing to contact me about benefits. So he gave it to them of course.
For the next 6 months I received 6 letters and a weekley phone call from this office.
The pig of a collector asked me to borrow money from family and/or forward them my tax return to take care of the debt. She was very unprofessional, rude and demanding. I then receive a call from Richard Koury himself. He tells me (no joke) he will have a sheriff come auction off my home if I did not pay him in full. Also he kept asking me about any assets or anybody to borrow the money from. He then assured me he had no problem seeing me in court and that he never loses a case. He was very threatening and just ridiculous. We had been served court papers and felt like we were being stalked literally.
I wrote him a letter offering to pay him $20.00 a month and that he was frivilous and it was a scam.
He sends official wage garnishment papers signed by a judge to my boyfriends office demanding a payment in 10 days or that he will garnish my boyfriends wages for living in my home as part of his rent to me.
We had to write the jerk a check for $1,125.00 and it was a 9 month ordeal. I am thinking wow, this guy did not do much with his career to have to call and threaten people for little money but I guess when you suck from the bottom of society, every dollar counts.
This lawyer had his tricks for sure. I hope anyone reading this learns something. If anyone calls asking for you by your former first and last name DENY THE CALL! It will cost you dearly.

You should know that you do have rights when it comes to debt collections. Please review the Fair Debt Collections Practices Act concerning the federal law against certain unscrupulous collections practices.

As a landlord I believe you are mistaken on the statute of limitations. If lawsuit was for rent then there was a contract. If you pay your rent then you won't be sued. Sounds like every landlord should hire this attorney if after 2 years he's still trying to collect on a judgment for rent. Most landlords need the rent money to pay their mortgage. You sound like a typical person who doesn't pay their bills, was forced to legally pay and you don't like it.

I did pay my bill. this lawyer is obviously not that great if he personally calls my home threatening to auction it by a sheriff, garnish mine and my boyfriends wages and lied to my 80 year old grandfather to get my phone number by telling him he was an old employer all for a $900 first and last rent agreement which was not applied to that I paid originally in my contract 7 YEARS AGO! $900, stalking me, lying to me. If he is such a great attorney why is he not handling greater cases and concerns. Granted he got his money from me but it took 2 years, lying to me and threatening me. If I knew then what I know now he would not have gotten a thing from me. The Statue of Limitations expired on that lease 3 years prior. My bills are paid but this guy is still an a**hole. I hope he hits rock bottom daily.

Obviously you do not pay your bills if a judgment was rendered against you and a garnishment was issued. I have used this attorney and highly recommend him.
