United We Stand, Divided We Fall

          As the citizens of my beloved Kentucky might know, the title of this post is actually our state motto. A very meaningful statement for a state which was a unforgiving frontier for new settlers such as Daniel Boone.During difficult time,  many people get in to a situation and feel helpless. Many people who receive their property Tax Collection Letter from an attorney, their first reaction would be disbelief. How a couple hundred dollar tax bill can miraculously become a $1000-2000 liability.  
            If unpaid, they state that they can foreclose on your property. Just a reminder for my readers, I am not an anarchist. I strongly believe property taxes are essential to our communities to function, but using it as a novel way to steal people's houses via foreclosure nor extortion of huge sums is completely unacceptable. There are many ways you can fight these guys. Lets discuss your options

      1- Complain to Attorney General's Office (I successfully used this approach): I can help you to draft a letter for this. But keep in mind, Mr. Jack Conway (Kentucky Attorney General) received political donations from "Tax Ease Liens". I hope he will be fair with his decision.

     2- Start a Class Action Lawsuit.  I believe  attorneys violated some of the Kentucky State Laws in their collection attempts for Property Tax Liens. If they knowingly inflated their attorney fees and overcharged beyond allowable limits stated in state laws, they should pay for damages. This will be the ideal solution and stopped them for good. This might receive some political backlash since property Tax Lien investors are the biggest spenders in Frankfort Kentucky. Business is so lucrative that, they sent one of their top employee to Kentucky, Trey Gulledge, to lobby for the company.

3-  Complain to the Kentucky Bar Association to disbar the involved Attorneys: This will be the most effective approach. Since if we can prevent certain attorneys (the ones that break the law) to take these cases, we can open the field to the ethical attorneys.
