Creditor Harassment in Silver Spring, Frederick, & Hagerstown

Silver Spring, MD Bankruptcy Lawyers

When a person struggles with debt, one of the most prominent issues aside from the overwhelming amount of debt includes the constant calls, letters, and emails from their creditors. While it is the creditor's main goal to collect the debt, many do so in a wrongful or even unlawful manner.

You have rights as a debtor, protected by the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, and having a bankruptcy attorney on your side can help you understand more about these rights.

Your Rights Under the FDCPA

Under the FDCPA, you are protected from intentional creditor harassment. These actions can include telephone calls at unusual hours of the day or night, phone calls to your place of employment after being instructed not to do so, speaking with others about your personal financial situation, or even contacting you after you have told them to cease communication in writing.

Additionally, these creditors are not allowed to contact you directly once you have hired an attorney for your case. With an attorney, the creditor harassment will be put to a stop - no more collections calls, no more worries of creditor abuse.
