Debt Collection Harassment

You don’t have to put up with constant calls or disrepect from debt collectors. The law is on your side and so are we.

Harassment by debt collectors isn’t just wrong, it’s illegal. Under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (“FDCPA”), you have the right to demand they stop, to sue for damages, and to take back control of your peace of mind. We help you do just that.

  • Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA): The main federal law protecting consumers from debt collector harassment. It bans threats, profanity, repeated calls, and false statements about your debt

  • Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA): Protects you from unwanted robocalls or text messages from debt collectors without your consent.

  • Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA): Requires collectors and creditors to report accurate information to credit bureaus. If they report false data or ignore your disputes, they can be held liable.

  • State Debt Collection Laws: Many states have their own versions of the FDCPA that go even further, often allowing additional damages or penalties for harassment.
