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 to Arrest Me for Not Paying My Debt!

Do not panic-this is generally not allowed. With some exceptions, failure to pay a debt is not in and of itself a crime and a debt collector cannot arrest you or put you in jail for the sole reason of not paying your debt.
Debt collectors are also prohibited from falsely threatening or even implying that the mere nonpayment of your debt will cause you to be arrested or imprisoned. An attorney can help you determine whether a debt collector's threats are legitimate or not.  mlp (205) 912-8244
