Abusive Collectors Beware

The FDCPA is a federal law that regulates debt collections. FDCPA lawyers file suit in federal court on behalf of the consumer. The FDCPA has very broad venue guidelines. One group of consumer rights lawyers is licensed in PA and NJ federal courts only. They will not accept any claims that cannot be brought in one of those jurisdictions. In fact, 99% of the cases they review can be brought in Pennsylvania or New Jersey. That is because the largest collection agency and largest debt collect law firms are located in Pennsylvania. Now you can fight back when collectors go over the line.
