Are you the Victim of Debt Collector Harassment?
Iowa and federal
Fair Debt Collection Practices laws prohibit many coercive, abusive, harassing, unconscionable, fraudulent or deceptive
collection practices in collecting consumer debt.
To
file a lawsuit against you, the collector generally will need an Iowa attorney. Ironically, the most abusive debt
collectors do not file lawsuits and are frequently collecting debts you have defenses to, such as you do not owe
the debt or it is beyond the statute of limitations. There are almost always good defenses to collections by debt
buyers who purchase debt for pennies on the dollar. Despite the abuse, most debts being collected by the most abusive
collectors should be a much lower priority for you to pay than bills such as your house payment, feeding your children or
keeping your utilities turned on.
Don't let an abusive debt
collector determine your family budget!!! There are legal ways to get the calls and abuse stopped.
