Discover Bank Dismisses $26,015 Fraudulent Debt Lawsuit Following Aggressive Defense by The Fullman Firm

Fullman Firm

Santa Ana, CaliforniaDiscover Bank has dismissed a $26,015.85 lawsuit against a California consumer (referred to as F.R. to protect their privacy), following aggressive defense by The Fullman Firm. The client had consistently maintained that the debt was fraudulent – claims initially ignored by Discover Bank and its attorneys at Suttell & Hammer, APC – until The Fullman Firm exposed critical legitimacy issues shortly before trial. 

The Fullman Firm swiftly responded upon being retained, filing all necessary pleadings and thorough legal discovery. These efforts uncovered that Discover Bank could not furnish credible documentation linking F.R. to the alleged debt. Facing a likely defeat, Discover Bank preemptively dismissed the case on the eve of trial. 

“Our client should never have had to go through this stress,” said Sam Dehbozorgi, lead attorney on the case. “This wasn’t just a mistake – this was a fraudulent debt being pursued by one of the biggest credit card banks in the country. Shame on Discover Bank for trying to bully an innocent person into paying a debt that was never theirs.” 

This dismissal exemplifies The Fullman Firm’s strategic litigation model – filing prompt defenses, pursuing aggressive discovery, and protecting consumers from wage garnishment, bank levies, and default judgments. The firm has successfully defended thousands in California, safeguarding their rights and financial security.
