Debt Collection Legal Questions and Answers

Debt Collection

Demand Letter

California

Asked on Sep 18, 2023

Demand letter and statute of limitations?

I recently received a demand letter from a creditor regarding an unpaid debt. The letter states that I must pay the full amount within 30 days or they will take legal action. I am concerned that the debt may be outside the statute of limitations, and I wanted to know what legal recourse I have in this situation.

Myrna L.

Answered Sep 24, 2023

If you are certain that the debt is time barred, debtor may not sue you. In California, there is generally a 4-year limit for filing a lawsuit based on a written agreement. Just make sure you don’t inadvertently restart the statute of limitations, i.e. acknowledge the debt.

Debt Collection

Lien

California

Asked on Feb 5, 2024

My brother paid off the mortgage loan of my parent's home in California in Jan 2021. In return the ownership was transferred to his name. However, in mid 2023 a lien was put on the property for $80K. We had no idea who filed, after talking with my father he told us that could be a judgement for him to pay back for the "zeek reward" scheme that he joined from more than 10 years ago. Is that legal for the lien to be on the property now that my father is not the owner?

The house is an investment property with renters, my father lives in one room and we do have a rental agreement with him. He manages the property since my brother and sister who are the owners of the property are living in different states.

Joseph M.

Answered Feb 6, 2024

If the judgment was against your father and not you then you should be able to fight the lien.

Debt Settlement Agreement

Florida

Asked on Jun 30, 2023

Can a debt settlement agreement be transferred?

I recently received an offer from a creditor to settle a debt I owe. However, due to my current financial situation, I am unable to make the payments they are asking for. I am wondering if I can transfer the debt settlement agreement to another party, who would be able to pay the debt in full.

Diane D.

Answered Aug 1, 2023

Probably not. You wil need to talk to the creditor.

Debt Collection

Demand Letter

Washington

Asked on Sep 18, 2023

Citing laws in a demand letter?

I recently sent a demand letter to a person who I believe owes me money. I am trying to collect the payment they owe me, but they are refusing to pay. I included a few laws in the demand letter that I believe are relevant to my situation, but I am not sure if I have included all of the necessary laws. I would like to make sure I am citing all of the applicable laws in my demand letter so that I can ensure the payment is collected.

Merry K.

Answered Sep 19, 2023

Unfortunately, often, one can cite all the laws one wants, but the person who owes the debt may simply be unwilling or unable to pay. If the debt is for less than $10,000, consider filing in Small Claims Court in your county. Here is the statewide information: https://www.courts.wa.gov/newsinfo/resources/?altMenu=smal&fa=newsinfo_jury.scc In addition, many counties, such as King, have their own websites and lots of information. When you file in Small Claims Court, be sure to include copies of all relevent paperwork, including any letters you sent to the defendent. And request reimbursement for the debt, interest, the cost of filing the Small Claims case, and any related costs/expenses. Even if you win, however, you may not get paid - but if you win, you will have some other ways to collect, such as garnishing wages or a bank account. I'd be happy to help coach you through the Small Claims process if you'd like to request my help through ContractsCounsel.com

Debt Collection

Repayment Agreement

Massachusetts

Asked on Jun 25, 2024

Can a repayment agreement be enforced if there was no written contract or agreement?

I recently borrowed a significant sum of money from a friend to cover some unexpected medical expenses. We agreed verbally that I would repay the loan in monthly installments over a period of one year, but there was no written contract or agreement. Unfortunately, due to unforeseen circumstances, I am now facing financial hardship and am unable to make the agreed-upon payments. My friend is threatening legal action to recover the loan. Can they enforce the repayment agreement even though there is no written contract?

Laura H.

Answered Jun 28, 2024

If the final payment was scheduled for more than one year after the agreement was made, Massachusetts law generally requires a written document. Texts or emails are considered writings that may be used to fulfill this requirement. However, there may be an exception if the parties began performance. A local attorney can review the evidence to provide specific advice.

Contracts Counsel was incredibly helpful and easy to use. I submitted a project for a lawyer's help within a day I had received over 6 proposals from qualified lawyers. I submitted a bid that works best for my business and we went forward with the project.

I never knew how difficult it was to obtain representation or a lawyer, and ContractsCounsel was EXACTLY the type of service I was hoping for when I was in a pinch. Working with their service was efficient, effective and made me feel in control. Thank you so much and should I ever need attorney services down the road, I'll certainly be a repeat customer.
