Debt Collectors: The 3 Time Limits For Collecting Debts

www.alabamaconsumerprotection.com www.alabamaconsumer.com When you face a debt collector, it is natural to wonder how long the collector has to collect. Or what is the statute of limitations? There are actually 3 time periods we need to focus on. First, the statute of limitations to file suit. The debt collector must sue within this time period. In Alabama this is normally 3 or 6 years. Second, the time to report delinquent accounts on your credit report is normally 7 years after the first major delinquency. Anything after that is too late. Finally, the time period to collect using methods other than suing or credit reporting. We'll hit each of these topics in our next videos. John Watts Birmingham, Alabama

FDCPA - Why Collectors Being Forced To Pay Your Attorney Fees Helps To Settle Cases

When you sue an abusive debt collector under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA), one of the benefits to the law is that if the collector broke the law, it may be forced to pay your attorney fees. This helps to settle cases because when collection agencies know they have been caught breaking the law, and then they know they may pay not only their attorney but your attorney, this encourages them to "cut their losses".

Illegal Calls And Voicemails To Cell Phone By Collectors

Alabama consumer attorney John Watts discusses whether it is legal for a debt collector to call your cell phone or to leave a voice mail message on your cell phone. Other than threats, lies, etc. which are always prohibited by the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA), there are two main violations which we see frequently when collectors call cell phones. First, the failure to leave the Mini - Miranda. This is the requirement to tell you the collector is a "debt collector" and that the call "is an attempt to collect a debt". This is a frequent violation. Second, the federal law Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) prohibits many of the auto dialer (computer calls - "robo" calls) that collectors like to use. Collectors can't use a predictive or auto dialer unless you have given permission to do so.

Sued for Debt--Why Your Chance to Win Is So Good When Debt Collectors Sue You

What to do if you're sued for debt and why you are likely to win if you do it. For information that will radically change what the debt collection process means to you, go to: yourlegallegup.com Your reasons to win if a debt collector brings suit against you is that debt collectors rarely have what they need to win and cannot get it without spending money. Most people being sued for debt default, and that means that any money the debt collectors use to chase you could be spent more efficiently on chasing other people. In addition, you have an excellent chance to win outright because finding the records of your debt is not easy, and they often do not exist at all. Thus if you stand up and fight for yourself the debt collector will probably (eventually) give up and drop the suit. Why Your Chances to Win are So Good: youtu.be
