Kay (FDCPA) 2011, the federal appeals court sitting in Philadelphia held, for the first time in this circuit, that bulk collection correspondence sent by collection clerks at a collection law firm, on law firm letterhead, but sent without lawyer involvement violates the provisions of federal consumer law because it misrepresents or implies that a lawyer was actually involved in the process.
