Welcome!

Most people, given the opportunity, want to pay their bills. Some unscrupulous businesses, however, have committed themselves to abusing consumers. Rather than working with consumers to reduce debt, these unscrupulous businesses take advantage of anyone that deals with them. Federal and state law protects consumers from these businesses.

Caught on tape...abusive debt collectors

As we work on debt collector cases, we are amazed at the stereotypes and misinformation out there.  So many people are quick to say, "Well, they should have paid their bills."  While that is true, there is never an excuse for one human being to threaten, harass or cause serious emotional injury to another person.  Even worse, for many people, debt collectors zero in on people that don't even owe the debt in question and won't let up.

We have assembled a small collection of videos that demonstrate what is going on in the debt collection industry.  ABC News, CBS News and their affiliates have all done investigative reporting and have actual debt collectors calls recorded and have spoken to former debt collectors.  Check it out, and let us know if seeing those videos changed your opinion in any way.   (BHATTORNEYS YouTube Channel)

Stay safe out there and know your rights!
