Why You Should Attend This Track

When the FDCPA was enacted, collection communications centered around mail and phone communications. Today, debt collectors are communicating by email, text message and even social media.  As debt collectors increasingly move to electronic communications and adoption of new collection technology, consumer advocates must adapt their own practices to effectively represent consumers. Responding to this challenge, the FDCPA track is focusing on how to handle cases against the modern debt collector.

What You Will Learn

  • How to gather the information you need to prove your claim against today’s debt collector
  • How to examine the viability of a potential FDCPA claim against today’s debt collector
