In the United States, the Office of the Inspector General (OIG) within the Department of Justice (DOJ) oversees fraud involving attorneys, particularly those engaged in federal programs. Additionally, state bar associations regulate the conduct of attorneys at the state level and investigate allegations of professional misconduct, including fraud. The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) may also get involved in cases of fraud related to legal services.

Do you have to deal with a collection agency to resolve a debt?

NO. Once you enter into an agreement with a collection agency no one else can collect against that debt. If you have other debts outstanding not covered in the agreement then another agency may be authorized to try and collect those debts. Collections agencies do not sue people. They can ask the courts to award a judgment or wage garnishment in order to help collect bad debt.
