Fair Debt Collection Practices Act

Stop Abusive Debt Collection Practice

Are you feeling overwhelmed by abusive debt collectors?

Dealing with debt collectors can be exhausting but you have rights and options to stop abusive debt collection practices under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA).

The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act provides consumers with certain safeguards against illegal and predatory actions by debt collectors. From 2014 to 2024, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau received more than 525,000 complaints from consumers about debt collections.

Under the FDCPA, you have the right to refuse engagement with debt collectors when they fail to follow the legal guidelines.
