You May Not Owe Those Debts
In Pennsylvania, there is a four-year statute of limitations governing the collection of your debts. Unfortunately, many creditors or companies who purchase bad debt continue to threaten you or attempt to collect the debt. If you are being harassed over an old debt, contact us; we can assist you in determining if your debt is collectible and, if not, we can take steps to stop any collection and harassment regarding that debt.
Fair Debt Collection Practices Act – FDCPA
The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA) and the state equivalent (the Fair Credit Extension Uniformity Act (FCEUA)) govern the conduct of debt collectors and unfair debt collection practices. If you are being constantly harassed, or if debt collectors are threatening you with jail or talking to your work associates or neighbors, they may be violating one of these laws. Learn your rights.
