Taking my own advice Part Two

By Cathy Moran

The return receipt on my “do not contact” letter to ATT arrived at my office showing receipt on July 6th.

Between July 7 and July 10, we got seven calls at home about the disputed account; on July 12th, we got a call from NCO who announce that the account has been turned over to them for collection.

As of yet, I have no contact information for NCO. When I get it, I will repeat my “do not contact” letter, invoking my rights to be free of collection calls under FDCPA and California’s Rosenthal Act.

They’ll get an invitation to call my lawyers, Moran Law Group, to discuss resolution of the dispute.

Check back for updates. The beginning of the tale.

Read the conclusion.

You've arrived at the Bankruptcy Soapbox, a resource of bankruptcy information and consumer law.

Soapbox is a companion site to Bankruptcy in Brief, where I try to be largely explanatory and even handed (Note I said "try").

How To Pay For Bankruptcy When You’re Flat Broke

One of the cosmic ironies of our legal system is that it costs money to file bankruptcy. Bankruptcy gets you out of debt only if you have the money to file. The costs of bankruptcy include the filing fee collected by the court; the required credit counseling; and, if you're smart, an experienced lawyer to make sure … Read more
