The Fair Debt Collections Practices Act (FDCPA) became law in 1977 and limited what businesses could, and could not, do when collecting debts from consumers. The statute's stated purposes are: to eliminate abusive practices in the collection of consumer debts, to promote fair debt collection, and to provide consumers with an avenue for disputing and obtaining validation of debt information in order to ensure the information's accuracy. The act specifically outlawed certain abusive debt collection practices. Business risk both civil and criminal penalties when employees violate the provisions of the Fair Debt Collections Practices Act. Additionally, debtors could have their debt eliminated by a court, if they can prove the creditor deliberately disregarded the law while collecting a debt.
With the COVID-19 pandemic, inflation, and other economic issues, businesses face increasing issues when collecting debts from consumers. This webinar is designed to familiarize participants with the debt collections process.
