Philadelphia Debt Harassment Laws

In Philadelphia, Pennsylvania state laws protect against debt collector harassment in the same ways the Federal Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA) does. PA expands on federal law to protect consumers against abusive practices by third party collectors and original creditors as well.
