How To Identify Illegal Debt Collectors

The debt collection process can be a serious hassle, especially if you suspect that someone is trying to trick you out of your money illegally. At Lucé Law, PC, we want to help you identify illegal debt collectors who might be trying to take advantage of you and your assets.

If you think that you might be dealing with an illegal debt collector, ask the following key questions:

When are payments due?

While real debt collectors will warn you well in advance about payment due dates, illegal collectors might demand money on the spot or within the day.

Did the collector provide contact information?

A legal collector will give you full contact information, including physical and web addresses. An illegal collector, on the other hand, might not share any such details with you.

What payment options do I have?

Illegal collectors often offer limited payment options, such as only accepting credit card information over the phone. Legal collectors, however, will give you several options, including payments by phone, by mail, online, or through a money wiring service.

How does the collector act?

Traditional debt collectors will treat you with a calm, polite, and non-judgmental attitude. Illegal collectors will often seem abusive, demanding immediate payment and refusing to answer your questions.

If you suspect that illegal debt collectors are trying to take advantage of you, contact the attorneys at Lucé Law, PC. We will help you identify and deal with any illegal collectors so you can feel safe and secure once again. Call us at (972) 632-1300.

“ Dear Joe, With heartfelt sincerity I say thank you, thank you and thank you for your help. There are many shifting winds as one works through life. There is also the resolute reality that you were able to correct my course through heavy winds, after I brought to you my scenario — to cite the greatest of sports scenarios — on the wrong and muddy end zone with no time left on the clock. So, with the opposition stacked against me, you did not tell me what I wanted to hear — you told me what I needed to hear. Most people would have said the game is over. It’s too late. Sorry, you lost. But, not you! Instead, with an unyielding “never say never” look in your eye you mustered your colleagues and developed a game plan. Your strategy, relentless investigation and hard work prevailed in my defense. You are a very unique person Joe. Men of your caliber are far and few between in this world. Men who care and who work for good family values! The words you told me rang true: “While we cannot change the past, we can learn, move forward and have an impact on what happens going forward.” Your wise advice saying, “That our objective must be on what should be done next; to focus our energy on a strategy to best protect my family.” When the clouds were dark and grim, you Joe, told me to take care of my family and let you and your colleagues do your work. But above all, you reinforced and restated for me and my family to keep the faith. You gave us shelter from the storm. Yes, Lucé Law is a “true” partner in times uncertain and certain. Joe, I will never forget what you did for me and for my family. This is a testament to you and all the good people at Lucé Law. I truly wish that I had the ability to assemble the words that I need to truly describe Lucé Law. Smart, expert, resolute, knowledgeable, patient, strategic, resilient, caring, helpful, listening, the best, all truly describe Lucé Law — notwithstanding “offering sound legal advice.” I suppose that if one can take themselves to a higher level, then one will experience that Lucé Law is on a level far above the rest.”
