Debt Collection Defense

Debt Collection Defense

Sued by a Debt Collector? We Have the Knowledge and Experience to Fight Back.

Debt collectors use the legal system to help leverage collection of a debt. Once a debt collector has a judgment, they can use that judgment to garnish your wages, "sweep" your bank account, place a lien on your property, and any number of other legal collection tools for 10 years (or longer). Don’t let this happen to you! Contact a law firm experienced in dealing with debt collection lawsuits right away.

Oftentimes, consumers may have a strong legal defense to the lawsuit, such as statute of limitations. It is critical that a person sued on a debt make a timely (within 20 days from date you are served) answer to the lawsuit and assert all of these defenses, or risk waiving them. We can do all of this for you.

The cost of defending a collection suit is often a fraction of the amount being sued upon. In fact, many times our clients end up paying no out-of-pocket legal fees because the fees are recovered from the debt collector who filed the lawsuit.
