Sold my home of XXXX years and upon reviewing the closing statements the debt collection law firm of McCullough Payne & Haan , LLC, presented a lien filed against me on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX in the amount of Principal {$3700.00} plus interest of {$2300.00} Plus attorney 's fees of {$580.00} plus court costs of {$100.00} to equal a Grand Total of {$6700.00} it is my understanding that the lien was placed WITHOUT any proof of Service as they could n't find me in the city although I maintained the same home address from XX/XX/XXXX through XX/XX/XXXX. I believe they used the same illegal tactics as was used by another debt collection firm that thecfpb has any action against ( XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX ) which also represented XXXX XXXX Bank. 
Again my understanding the lien is good for seven years and was refiled XX/XX/XXXX. and again appears to have paid {$7.00} XXXX/XXXX/XXXX I do n't know if these steps are correct or not and since I never received service on the original lien I would think the Liens were not legal! 
I had a closing attorney get involved and he negotiated a {$4000.00} reduction of the total presented in the closing documents for a new net total {$13000.00}. 
I believe this debt collector mirrored the practices of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and just churned out non serviced liens to the court and the court just believed the lies and went along with being duped.
