Common Questions About Consumer Protection Law
Consumer protection laws exist to prevent companies from engaging in unfair, deceptive, or abusive practices. Many people are unaware that they may have legal rights when dealing with inaccurate credit reports, aggressive debt collectors, or unwanted robocalls.
Below are answers to frequently asked questions about consumer law cases we handle for clients throughout Florida.
Who These Laws Protect
Common Violations Across Consumer Laws
- Calls made without consent
Automated calls or texts sent without proper authorization violate consumer protection laws and can result in statutory damages per violation.
- Ignoring 'STOP' requests
Continued contact after a consumer requests to stop may constitute a violation, even if initial consent was given.
- Credit report errors not corrected
Inaccurate information that is not corrected after a proper dispute can lead to legal claims, especially if it affects employment or housing.
- Harassment or threats
Debt collectors using abusive language, threatening behavior, or calling repeatedly violate federal law and consumer protection standards.
- Mixed credit files
When credit bureaus mix your information with another person's file, this creates errors that must be corrected or can lead to legal action.
- Contacting third parties
Debt collectors discussing your debt with family, employers, or neighbors without permission violates consumer protection laws.
