You have a lawsuit under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act.   Debt collectors cannot call with that frequency. Being Bothered by Debt Collectors? Debt collectors must treat you with truth, fairness, dignity, and respect. Any debt collector who crosses the line and abuses you for the collection of a consumer debt can be sued in federal court for damages under a law called the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA). Debt Collectors Are Prohibited From: •  Threatening lawsuits, garnishment, liens, or arrest for not paying a bill; •  Calling your family, friends, neighbors or employers to collect a debt; •  Leaving abusive phone messages; •  Insulting, yelling or swearing at you; •  Calling your workplace after telling the collector not to call you there; •  Lying, threatening, or otherwise harassing you in any way. If you have suffered from any of these abusive bill collection practices, you may be entitled to compensation. Moreover, debt collectors that violate the FDCPA are strictly liable, meaning that a consumer need not show intentional conduct by the debt collector to be entitled to damages. We can help any consumer who is currently in collections, or has suffered from collection harassment.   Call us today at (888) 877-5103 to speak with an attorney and get a free phone www.ConsumerRightsOrlando.com
