Atlanta: Let Our Lawyers Tell You Your Rights Regarding Collection Calls

Know what is allowed and let our lawyers fight for you during this difficult time.



    ATLANTA, GA, June 30, 2015 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Since 1983, Clark & Washington has been helping people understand how they can get the law on their side when it comes to their finances and property. If you live in Atlanta and are in a position where you could potentially lose your home, then learn more about their services today in relieving you from the stress and anxiety that come from those pesky phone calls from collectors.

What You Should Know

You still have rights as a consumer even when you owe money, and being as informed as possible can help make a difficult situation a little more manageable. Your sanity needs to stay protected which is why there are a number of measures in place to temper the collector's power. A debt collection agency cannot call you at work, nor can they call before 8 a.m. or after 9 p.m. They aren't allowed to tell others (besides your lawyer) that you owe money, and they're not permitted to make threats against you. A collector cannot make multiple calls to you as that's a considered a form of harassment. You also have the right to request in writing that they stop calling you, which they have to honor. This obviously does not absolve you from the debt, but can give you a little peace to formulate a plan.

How a Lawyer Can Help

In addition to giving you peace of mind in knowing that someone is fighting in your corner, a lawyer can help you hold onto your most valuable possessions, like your home and car, when you're facing financial difficulty. Filing bankruptcy is an extreme measure, and it's treated as such by the helpful and knowledgeable lawyers at Clark & Washington. However, they can help you decide if it's the right step for you based on your current situation. Once a bankruptcy is filed, debt collectors are required to stop calling as the terms have now shifted into a waiting period before your court date. Lawyers take the guess work out of all of the forms and technical procedures.

Even simple mistakes can cause major delays or possible even loss of property. When you have lawyers like those at Clark & Washington who know their field inside and out, you can feel confident that you're getting the right people to give you the sound advice necessary in what can often feel like an uncertain time. Trust their experience to help you stop the phone calls and start breathing easier.

Established in 1983, Clark & Washington is now one of the leading bankruptcy filers in the Southeast. They have locations in Georgia, Florida and Tennessee. Clark & Washington specializes in personal chapter seven and 13 bankruptcy. They offer honest, helpful legal advice to those experiencing financial hardships.
