Overview: Aside from a single letter requesting money owed to a client, there was no evidence that an attorney was regularly engaged in the debt collection business or that the principal purpose of his practice was the collection of debts. Therefore, the attorney was not a "debt collector," as defined in 15 U.S.C.S. ? 1692a(6).
