San Jose Creditor Harassment & Abuse Attorney
Handling Creditor Harassment & Abuse.
In today's tough economy, many people are finding it harder to keep up with their bills and can fall behind. When that happens you can count on the fact that you will start getting collection calls, first from the company you owe money to and then from collection companies.
What they don't tell you is that you have rights as a consumer and there are specific things it is illegal for bill collectors to do. Under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA), if a collection agency violates certain rules or regulations they may be liable for heavy fines or even lose their license.
