Brian Suder is the owner of USA Law Center, formerly USA Legal Group. The firm works with consumers who are current on their credit cards but carrying heavy balances, and with business owners trying to get out of merchant cash advances, pursuing claims that lenders violated federal statutes. Brian describes his life as three separate fortunes: one made in the drug trade at 23, one built in loss mitigation by 30, and one rebuilt in his forties after addiction and ten stays in rehab. He grew up with neglect and serious abuse; martial arts became his outlet. He became an East Coast champion, winning dozens of championships and grand championships. As a red belt, he was matched against the best fighters in every division, including black belts, and beat them. That path led to organized bare-knuckle fights before the UFC, often inside fenced tennis courts. He says those fights were also a way to unload the rage from childhood. The break came as he approached college: his sister died of cancer during his third year, his father disappeared, and his mother had a meltdown and put him out with about a year of school left. He left with roughly $200.
Already strict about fitness, diet, and training, Brian was buying large amounts of performance drugs and HGH through people tied to the Gambino crime family. His reputation led to an offer to sell ecstasy. He became a supplier for Maryland, Washington, D.C., and Virginia, working with the Gambino, DeCavalcante, Russian, Persian, Greek, Jewish, and Velvet mafias. His crew became known as the Navy SEALs of the drug trade because they were militant about movement, never arrested, and knew when to walk away. He was a millionaire at 23, and most of that money went to a lavish life in Hollywood. By 30, he built Home Rescue Programs, described as the largest loss-mitigation company in the country, and was a millionaire again. He wrote and published editorials and was invited to Capitol Hill more than once to meet members of the Senate and House. Alcohol and cocaine then caught up with him; he lost money, friends, relationships, and business partnerships. He checked into rehab ten times before it held, and in his forties he built a third fortune sober as owner of USA Legal Group, renamed USA Law Center last year.
