More Consumers Suing Over Debt Collection Harassment JD Supra (press release)
Debtors and their attorneys in California have contributed over the last seven years to a fivefold increase in lawsuits alleging illegal debt collection practices, according to an analysis recently published by the Sacramento Bee. The surge in suits against collection agencies has intensified as the economy struggles to recover, suggesting that collectors are increasingly pushing the envelope to extract payments from debtors.
“You’re seeing more debt collection going on as the recession continues, particularly when it comes to credit card debt,” said Kevin Mallon , an attorney with Fishman & Mallon in New York City. “You’re also seeing a huge increase in student loan debt collection as these loans get outsourced to third parties that collect more aggressively.”
The majority of these lawsuits cite violations of the Fair Debt Collection
