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.

A Debt Collector Threatened Me

Debt collectors are not allowed to threaten you, your family, your friends or your neighbors in connection with collecting a debt. Not only that, debt collectors are also not allowed to threaten harm to your property. Threats could include violence, stalking, theft, vandalism, etc. Some debt collectors may use these tactics to scare people into paying their debts.

Be aware, however, that using or threatening to use violence or any other illegal means to collect a debt is prohibited by federal law. This kind of behavior is prohibited whether you owe the debt or not. mlp (205)912-8244
