It governs the activities of debt collectors, gives consumers rights and protections and includes penalties for debt collectors that violate the law. If retained by you, attorneys at the firm will vigorously defend your FDCPA rights and take immediate actions to stop creditor abuse against you. The firm believes you have the right to be treated with dignity and respect even if you owe creditors money, and that respect starts at the office door.
