Filing for Bankruptcy in Florida Can End Creditor Harassment
Creditors cannot do whatever they like when attempting to collect on a debt. The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA) outlines that debt collection agencies cannot use behavior that is abusive, harassing or threatening. This includes repeated calls to home or work, threatening letters, abusive language or other prohibited activities. It also includes not calling debtors in violation of an automatic stay put in place due to bankruptcy.
At the P.R. Smith Law Group in Tampa, our lawyers have filed more than 50,000 bankruptcies for individuals and families who need debt relief from credit card bills, medical bills and other types of debt. In Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 bankruptcy, we can help you stop creditor harassment that violates your rights under the FDCPA.
Bankruptcy Is an Effective Solution
Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 both stop creditor harassment immediately. In fact, creditors that continue to harass you after you file bankruptcy are violating the law and could be subject to harsh penalties.
Bankruptcy is also a permanent solution. It is designed to help you overcome your debt and the creditor harassment that comes with it once and for all. We are here to make this solution work for you.
