What is the Fair Debt Collections Practices Act?

The Fair Debt Collections Practices Act (FDCPA) is a federal law which is created to protect consumers from unfair or abusive actions from debt collectors. When collectors violate your rights, they can be held liable under the FDCPA. It lays out specific guidelines for collection practices and prevents creditors from engaging in abusive or excessive collection actions.

Actions like the ones mentioned above, as well as threats, inappropriate contact, or deceptive conduct can all be considered a violation of your rights under the FDCPA. You should take steps to document any discussions or communications you have with collectors that you feel may be illegal on their part. You should also talk with any witnesses or record conversations if possible. Then, you need to file a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission. If this still doesn't put a stop to the harassment, you can retain our legal services. We can aggressively pursue any collector who refuses to uphold your rights.
