How to Check a Debt Levy & Associates Says You Owe

A creditors' rights firm with this many client types may hold very different paperwork for each account. Ask for the documents that fit yours.

  • Check whether you have been sued. If you were served, the answer deadline on the court papers comes first; see our debt lawsuit questions for Texas cases.
  • Read the validation notice. It must name the creditor and itemize the debt (15 U.S.C. § 1692g; 12 C.F.R. § 1006.34).
  • Dispute in writing within the validation period. Ask for the loan or credit agreement, the itemized medical bill and insurance payments, the lease and move-out ledger, or the insurance claim file, depending on the debt. The firm must stop collecting until it verifies.
  • Confirm the client and whether it is the original creditor or a later owner.
  • Check the date of default. Texas allows four years to sue on most debts (Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code § 16.004), and debt buyers may not sue on time-barred consumer debt (Tex. Fin. Code § 392.307). Ohio and other states set their own deadlines.

What Levy & Associates Can and Can't Do

Attorneys who regularly collect consumer debts are "debt collectors" under the FDCPA (Heintz v. Jenkins, 514 U.S. 291 (1995)), whether they send letters or file lawsuits.

  • It must bring a consumer debt suit where you live or where you signed the contract (15 U.S.C. § 1692i).
  • Its letters may not suggest that an attorney has meaningfully reviewed your account if none has (15 U.S.C. § 1692e(3)).
  • It may not call you at work if it knows your employer prohibits it (15 U.S.C. § 1692c(a)(3)), or call more than seven times in seven days per debt (12 C.F.R. § 1006.14(b)(2)).
  • Even after a judgment, Texas exemptions protect wages from garnishment for ordinary consumer debts, as well as a homestead and many personal items.
