Payment Agreement
Last updated: July 13, 2026
Slovin & Council, Co., LPA is a debt collector. This is an attempt to collect a debt and any information obtained will be used for that purpose.
This Payment Agreement ("Agreement") applies when you make a payment or set up a payment plan through the online payment portal (the "Portal") operated by Slovin & Council, Co., LPA ("we," "us," or "the Firm"). By making a payment or scheduling a payment plan, you agree to the terms below.
Eligibility to Make a Payment
In order to make a payment through the Portal, the following conditions must be true. By proceeding, you represent and warrant that:
• This account is not part of any pending bankruptcy matter.
• This account has not been discharged in bankruptcy.
• You are the consumer on the account, or you are authorized by the consumer to make payments on the account.
• You are the authorized holder of the payment method you are using and have sufficient funds or available credit to complete the payment.
Authorization for One-Time Payments
By submitting a one-time payment, you authorize the Firm to initiate a single debit in the amount and on the date you specify, using the payment method you provide. You understand that the payment will be processed through your bank or card network and is subject to their terms.
Authorization for Recurring Payments
If you set up a payment plan, you authorize the Firm to process recurring payments according to the schedule you select. Such payments may be made via Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) or the card or account you designate. This authorization will remain in effect until the plan is completed or you cancel it as described below. You are responsible for ensuring that your chosen payment method has sufficient funds or credit available to cover each scheduled payment, and for promptly updating your payment information if it changes.
Returned or Failed Payments
If any payment is returned, declined, or cannot be processed, the Firm may re-attempt the payment and you may be charged fees by your financial institution. Failure to maintain a valid payment method with sufficient funds may result in the suspension or termination of your payment plan. Nothing in this Agreement limits any remedies otherwise available to the creditor or the Firm.
Application and Posting of Payments
Payments will be applied to your account(s) in accordance with the terms of your plan and applicable law. You understand that the balance shown on your account may not accurately reflect recent payments due to delays in the receipt and application of payments, particularly payments sent through courts or third parties.
No Waiver of Legal Obligations
You understand that despite making a payment or scheduling a payment plan, you may still have legal obligations related to the account(s). You further acknowledge that, despite your payment(s), the creditor and/or the Firm may pursue certain legal actions in accordance with applicable law. Making a payment today does not overshadow or waive any rights provided to you in prior notices you have received.
Release
By making a payment or setting up a payment plan and performing your obligations under it, you agree to release the current creditor, the Firm, and their respective agents and employees from any and all liability for claims arising out of the proper processing of the account payment(s) made under this Agreement, except to the extent such a release is prohibited by applicable law.
Cancellation and Changes
You may cancel a scheduled payment or payment plan, or update your payment information, by contacting the Firm at 513-683-9000 a reasonable time before the next scheduled payment date. The Firm may modify or discontinue the Portal's payment features at any time. Any changes to this Agreement will be effective upon posting to the Portal, and the "Last updated" date will reflect the most recent revision.
