Consumer Protection
Safeguard Law Group, PLLC is committed to protecting consumers from unlawful, unfair, and deceptive practices by creditors, debt collectors, and credit reporting agencies. Our attorneys represent clients in asserting their rights under federal and state consumer protection laws, such as the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA). We also represent consumers in Breach of Contract claims arising from their creditors’ failure to honor their agreements. Through strategic advocacy and personalized representation, we work to enforce our clients’ rights, hold wrongdoers accountable, and obtain meaningful relief on their behalf.
When consumers rely on contractual agreements such as reduced payment arrangements and loan modifications, a creditor’s failure to uphold its obligations can result in significant financial harm. This often includes higher debt burdens, increased interest and fees, and unnecessary legal expenses. We aggressively pursue claims to hold creditors accountable, enforce contractual rights, and help consumers recover the damages caused by these breaches.
The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (“FDCPA”) is a federal law enacted by Congress to protect consumers from abusive, deceptive, and unfair debt collection practices. Debt collectors often use aggressive tactics designed to pressure consumers into making payments they may not legally owe, agreeing to unfavorable terms, or prioritizing alleged debts over other essential financial obligations.
A debt collector may have already violated the FDCPA if they:
Demanded payment from you for a debt that you do not owe
Falsely threatened to take legal action where the statute of limitations has already passed
Represented or implied that you will be arrested or imprisoned for not paying a debt (unless such action would be lawful and the debt collector actually intends to take such action)
Falsely represented that the debt collector is an attorney or calling on behalf of an attorney (when in fact they are not)
Used deceptive means to represent that documents are legal process (when in fact they are not)
Disclosed to a 3rd party (e.g., your employer) information that you owe a debt
Safeguard Law Group, PLLC can educate you about your rights as a consumer, take legal action on your behalf, and fight to obtain monetary awards afforded by the law.
