According to consumers, the "form type" collection letters sent by Bronson & Migliaccio violate the federal Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. Consumers allege that they violate the act for two reasons. Initially, the consumers claim the letters are illegal because they represent to consumers that they originate from an attorney's office, and have been reviewed by an attorney. Secondly, the consumers assert that the letters inform recipients that they are required to inform Bronson & Migliaccio in writing if they wish not to be contacted further by phone or letter at their home or place of business. The consumers allege that under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, any communication containing untrue, misleading or coercive claims is unlawful. The consumers assert that Bronson & Migliaccio's representations run afoul of this standard. The consumers allege that no attorney has, in fact, reviewed their debt. They claim that these letters are mass generated and besides entering their information into a computer, very little human involvement has occurred with these collection attempts. Additionally, the consumers allege that requiring them to contact Bronson & Migliaccio in writing to suspend further communications at their place of business is coercive because it amounts to a tacit threat to contact their employers regarding their alleged debt. The consumers claim that Bronson & Migliaccio have sent hundreds, and most likely thousands, of these letters and that, as a result, the class is quite numerous.
