If you contracted for services or purchased an item and it was not what the seller represented it would be, then you may have a consumer claim. There are special laws that protect consumers from fraudulent or bad consumer sales. These include the Texas Deceptive Trade Practices Act, the Fair Debt Collection Act, and many other laws. A consumer that has a claim may be entitled to money damages under the Deceptive Trade Practices Act (DTPA) based on the conduct of the seller of the good or service. These claims commonly involve service contracts between consumers and businesses. A consumer claim may also involve the purchase of a vehicle, boat, car, truck or other equipment. If you purchased a good and service and it was not what the service was represented to be, then you may have a consumer claim. The claim may be a simple breach of contract or it may involve fraud or other violations of the Texas Deceptive Trade Practices Act (DTPA). It is important to have your claim evaluated by an experienced consumer claim attorney to determine whether you should make a claim. The attorney will likely need to review the sale or service contract, the details of what was represented to you before any money changed hands, as well as other details. https://scottlawfirmtx.com/practice_areas/consumer-claims/ |

consumer debt buying Explanation: A debt buyer is a company, sometimes a collection agency, a private debt collection law firm, or a private investor that purchases delinquent or charged-off debts from a creditor or lender for a percentage of the face value of the debt based on the potential collectibility of the accounts. The debt buyer can then collect on its own, utilize the services of a third-party collection agency, repackage and resell portions of the purchased portfolio or any combination of these options. - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Debt_buyer_(United_States)# ------- The disintegration of Aequitas Capital has been as sudden as it was unexpected. After growing into a $1.7 billion alternative asset manager specializing in buying bad educational, medical and consumer debt, the firm is now a skeleton of its former self. - https://www.fa-mag.com/news/advisors-in-the-crosshairs-after... --------- Hudson & Keyse, LLC (H&K), a proprietary firm specializing in debt buying, collecting and selling consumer distressed assets, announced today the completion of a two year initiative to restructure and realign the business. - https://www.insidearm.com/news/00038182-hudson-keyse-complet... ---- The debt buying industry specializes in “zombie debts,” or those debts well past the statute of limitations or debts discharged in bankruptcy - https://lee-legal.com/2016/10/27/the-debt-buying-industry/ ----- Debt-Buying Basics Companies in the market to buy debts vary in size and capital structure. No matter the company size, the goal is the same. Debt buyers invest good money in order to pursue collecting on bad debt. Larger companies buy up huge portfolios of debt directly from your creditors, such as credit card lenders. Meanwhile, smaller or specialized companies who are buying up debts may not have access to purchase directly from credit originators. These smaller companies often rely on debt “re-sales” in order to get their stock of debts to collect. And it’s in the resale of debts where the lowest prices are often found. - https://finance.yahoo.com/news/buy-own-debt-pennies-dollar-1... |
