New Castle Debt Collector Defense Attorney
Fighting for the Rights of Clients in New Castle, Delaware
At the Law Office of Michael P. Forbes, PC, serving clients in and around New Castle, the abusive actions of debt collection companies is taken very seriously. As an attorney fighting for the rights and fair treatment of my clients for more than three decades, I've heard all of the bullying techniques that these companies often use to make you feel embarrassed, humiliated, and fearful.
These often nasty and offensive methods of trying to get your payments rarely work and are actually unlawful, according to many federal and state laws. You don't have to be insulted, harangued, or threatened. As a New Castle debt collector defense lawyer, I represent clients in debt collection abuse cases. I can advise you of your legal rights and options for stopping this type of behavior and for turning the tables on debt collection agencies that engage in unfair and abusive practices.
Your Legal Rights in Debt Collection Practices
The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA) is a federal law which protects you as a consumer against the abusive methods that a creditor may engage in to force you to pay them. Furthermore, this law gives you the right to sue such collectors who disobey this law. Regardless of how much money you owe any given debt collector, that agency is required to treat you with courtesy and to refrain from any type of harassment or offensive tactics. On a similar note, credit bureaus are subject to the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) which requires them to correct any inaccuracies in your credit information.
When they fail to do so, you can also file a lawsuit against them for their misconduct in regards to credit report errors. I'm on your side as a consumer not only in the matter of abusive debt collectors and erring credit agencies but also in the fight to save your home through foreclosure defense, save your vehicle from repossession, and help you fight back if you are being sued by a credit card company. I can also help you get the reimbursement you are owed on long term nursing insurance, especially in cases where you're experiencing debt collection actions because of insurance claim delays and other tactics.
