FL Legal Group Lawyers Can Help You Stop Debt Harassment
QUESTIONS ABOUT YOUR RIGHTS:
- How do I get debt collectors to stop calling me?
First, you have to tell them to stop calling by either telling the caller “Stop calling me,” or mail a one-sentence letter requesting that the calls stop. If they ignore you and you still get calls, it’s time to call us. The calls will stop right after FL Legal Group files a suit or send a letter on your behalf.
- I keep getting calls but they are not for me. Do I have any recourse?
If a debt collector is calling you by mistake, then they are probably violating the law. If they continue to call after you told them of the wrong number, it means they are knowingly breaking the law.
- How much does your legal service cost?
There is no out of pocket cost for up front for taking your case because we work on a contingency fee basis. That means that we do not get paid unless we win your case. When we do, depending on the facts of your case, either the harassing creditor will pay our fees directly, or we will retain a fraction of the monetary settlement recovered on your behalf.
- I asked a debt collector to stop calling me, but I’m still getting calls. How can this be legal?
It may not be legal if the creditor is using an automatic dialer in a call center. You have the right to revoke consent to receive calls. Contact us as soon as possible as you may have a strong legal case.
