Our team of lawyers regularly represent clients in both State and Federal Courts throughout Massachusetts and are well versed in the local practice. Our team of attorneys has been extremely successful in all phases of litigation, especially at trial. Let us put our experience to work for you.
As collection agencies frequently ignore the law, if you have been contacted by bill collectors, collection agencies or anyone else attempting to collect a debt chances are they have violated the law. Contact us today for a free case evaluation. We are the experts, let us inform you of your rights.
In addition to the Federal Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, residents of Massachusetts are given even greater additional protection by state laws. While the Federal Law applies only to collections agencies and bill collectors, the Mass law applies to anyone attempting to collect any debt such as banks, student loan companies, rental agencies, doctor’s offices, or anyone else. Even better, the Massachusetts Laws (M.G.L. Chapter § 93A) provides for triple damages under certain circumstances PLUS an award of legal fees. It does not matter if you owe the money, you have a right to be treated fairly and with respect. If you have been treated unfairly, our experienced team of attorneys can make the harassment and unfair treatment stop and make the bill collectors PAY YOU. For a more detailed explanation of your rights and remedies under MA law, contact us today.
