Your Rights While in Debt

You may not realize you have rights and legal recourse against unfair debt collection practices. At STERN•THOMASSON LLP, we seek to inform consumers of their options and enforce consumer protection laws when they are violated.

Our practice handles many different debt collection matters and disputes, including:

  • Fair Debt Collection Practices Act: This law ensures there are limits to what a collection agency can do when notifying a debtor about their overdue payments.
  • Debt buyers: Third-party companies will often buy debt from a creditor for a low price in order to have the right to try to collect it on their own. If they are using unfair methods to contact you, our consumer protection lawyers can help.
  • Being sued by a creditor: If you are sued for your debts, it is important that you begin putting a plan together right away to resolve those issues. Our team can help you gain a better understanding of the legal options you have available.
  • Unfair debt collection practices: Did you know debt collectors cannot call you outside certain hours or talk to your friends and family about your debts? If you have been abused by debt collectors, you may be able to sue.
  • Statute of limitations for debt collection: Your debt may not be collectible if enough time has passed since you defaulted on the debt. Let our team help you determine if a collection agency is within its rights to demand repayment.
  • Telephone Consumer Protection Act: Even with phone calls, there are laws to protect consumers. You can request to stop receiving calls. Let STERN•THOMASSON LLP help you learn more about how to protect your rights.
  • Fair Credit Reporting Act

With decades of combined experience in protecting consumers and vindicating their rights, STERN•THOMASSON LLP can help you understand your rights too and how to fight for them. You are not alone in this. Let our team help.
