Are You Being Called By Goldman Roth Acquisitions, LLC?*

Debt collection harassment impacts your daily life in many ways. It stresses you out, can cause you to develop high blood pressure and, over time, can lead to depression. You may feel that you have no choice but to accept the mistreatment, but the truth is that there are laws in place to protect you.

Your Rights Under the FDCPA

The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, or FDCPA, is a federal law that protects you from deceptive, abusive, and unconscionable debt collection practices. Any third-party collection agency that tries to make you pay in the following ways can be penalized by consumer protection groups.

• Failing to identify itself a debt collector in all communications
• Threatening to communicate negative information to the credit bureaus
• Demanding immediate payment during the statutory dispute period
• Using profane and obscene language
• Calling you at work when they know that your boss doesn’t allow such calls
• Adding illegal service fees to the original debt
