A debt collection attorney works with both people seeking to collect debts and those defending themselves against debt collectors. Federal and State debt collection laws and regulations govern the procedures and processes debt collectors must follow when seeking to collect a debt. A debt collection lawyer will negotiate on your behalf. Depending on the case, debt collection lawyers may be paid on a contingency and only receive payment when they succeed.
