What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Florida

I have a Law office that is no licensed in my state trying to collect a debt. Are law offices that are collecting considered collection agencies? They are out of state and not threatening to sue. My state (FL) requires collection agencies to be licensed yearly and does only provides exemptions to members of the Florida Bar as far as lawyers are concerned. So is this law office in violation of my state law concerning licensing?
