These people keep calling everyone in my family but me.  Unless they send me official documentation in the mail, I'm not sweating these people.

Claim to be sending "legal" documents that need to be delivered and signed for.  When you ask who they are they claim they are Mark & Associates.  When asked for there Debt Collector licenses, the gentlemen on the phone was offended and claimed he was a lawyer.  He also explained he went to law school for eight years.  When asked for there company address, they refused to provide it.

If he actually went to law school for eight years, he probably went to work there as a janitor.

There are two law degrees recognized by the ABA as being conferred by their accredited law schools.  One is the JD degree, or Juris Doctor degree.  These are awarded in three years to full-time students, or four years to part-time students.

The LLM degree, derived from Legum Magister, is an advanced academic degree in law.  In the US, you need to have a JD degree before applying for an LLM.  But, aside from being an academic (as opposed to a professional) degree, it takes only one more year of full-time or two years of part time study in addition to the time required to get a JD degree.

Thus, if someone said that they went to law school for eight years, that's at least two years longer than required (or even allowed) by an ABA accredited US school.  That's nothing to be proud of ... in fact, it's probably something to be ashamed of.  And his right to practice law is conferred by the State Bar or by the Courts of the state in which he practices, anyway, not the school he went to.  They will only give him that right after reviewing the results of a character and fitness examination they conduct.

The upshot is, the guy is almost certainly lying.  And the so-called "papers" he is demanding you to sign are probably affidavits, not a summons to appear in court.  The affidavits are probably confessions of debt that you shouldn't sign, but that they coerce you to sign just so they can get a default judgment against you.

You should not rely upon anonymous advice like this as legal advice, though.  I am merely speculating on what *might* be the case.  If you have any legal questions, contact a qualified attorney in your jurisdiction.

Just be careful, and don't fall for scams.

He never did infer that he had graduated. it is possible that this scammer is currently attempting it again, and is currently in his second or third series of 8 year instructions. Soon it is likely that he will qualify for the senior discounts.
