Are You Being Harassed by Aggressive Debt Collections Agents?
Ringing phones at all hours of the day and night, on behalf of an angry creditor.
Not-so-friendly reminders, by mail, that you owe money on a purchase or possession.
Surprise visits from a debt collections agent. As surprises go, these are not especially pleasant.
This behavior is called "creditor harassment." It is illegal under federal bankruptcy law, and the experienced bankruptcy attorneys at Penachio & Malara, LLP, can shield you from it.
The "automatic stay" of consumer bankruptcy brings bullying debt collections tactics to a sudden halt. Our attentive lawyers, Ann Penachio & Frank Malara, can match creditors' aggressiveness and more, when necessary and in pursuance of a client's legal rights under the law. If your tormentors' intrusions do not cease, they run the risk of expensive, unwelcome legal action that sends a strong message.
We do everything we can, within the law, to protect your rights and peace of mind. That has been our mission since 1991.
You can arrange a free consultation at 888-368-5232. You can also e-mail us. We return messages promptly and keep flexible meeting schedules for your convenience.
