Dealing with a debt collector can be one of life’s most stressful experiences. Harassing calls, threats, and use of obscene language can drive you to the edge. What’s worse, a collector may embarrass you by contacting your employer, family, or neighbors. You may even be hounded to pay a debt that is not rightfully yours. Sure, collection agencies have a job to do. Even so, there are limits on how far a debt collector can go. Seek assistance in resolving your debts as quickly as possible to avoid negative marks on your credit. Some situations may call for the assistance of a lawyer. If the debt is not yours, you should still respond immediately. Delay can mean the collector will continue to contact you. The collector may even file a lawsuit and get a judgment against you. The result can cost you time and trouble in the long run. If you are having trouble with harassing debt collection calls, please contact our experienced attorneys to help settle the dispute.
