Expert Opinion

Recent reports show a surge of calls from the 617‑393‑5981 line where callers claim to represent Michael Kelly’s law office or a court, demanding payment on old judgments. The pattern includes citing specific personal details, using aggressive language, and threatening wage garnishment or liens. Verify any court action by contacting the clerk directly, and never provide banking information over the phone. Record the call and report it to the FTC and your state attorney general. If you suspect fraud, block the number and consult a consumer‑rights attorney before making any payments.
