Are you being called by Monarch Recovery Management, Inc.? Make sure your rights are protected!

Is a debt collector calling you every day and rudely demanding that you pay up or risk wage garnishment, public embarrassment, or worse? If so, they are breaking the law, and you may have grounds for suing them.

Your Rights Under the FDCPA

The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, or FDCPA, was enacted in September 1977 to protect consumers from being harassed by third-party debt collectors . Since then, it has been illegal for them to use tactics like the following when attempting to collect a debt:

  • Calling you several times a day and leave voicemail messages that do not identify the caller or their purpose
  • Pretending to be police officers or federal agents
  • Telling your friends, family, and neighbors that you owe money
  • Using profane and abusive language
  • Demanding outrageous ‘fees’ in addition to the original debt
  • Calling you at work after you tell them that you can’t take personal calls there
