Are You Being Called By Jenkins, Wagnon & Young?* Here’s What You Need to Know

Stop the
Harassment

You have legal rights. We can help.

 


Most of us owe money. Unfortunately, if you lose your job or become too disabled to work, your accounts will go into arrears and debt collectors will eventually be in touch. Not all of them are civil when you can’t pay.

Your Rights Under the FDCPA

In 1977 Congress passed the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, or FDCPA, to protect people from stressful debt collection practices. If you owe a debt, you have rights, including the right to sue debt collectors that act in prohibited ways like.

  • Threatening legal actions it can’t take
  • Pursuing a debt discharged in bankruptcy
  • Calling third parties about the debt
  • Harassing you by phone (calling and hanging up)
  • Cursing and swearing
  • Collecting from you during the dispute period
