Key Points
- Understanding your legal rights can help you effectively deal with debt collectors and potentially remove negative items from your credit report. Debt collectors are required by law to prove that a debt is yours and must adhere to specific communication rules, including identifying themselves as debt collectors. Responding to debt collection attempts with specific legal language, such as disputing the debt or specifying how you wish to be contacted, can protect you from harassment and lead to potential violations that work in your favor.
