Lindenhurst Bankruptcy Attorney On When Creditors Will Stop Calling
How long after I file will the creditors stop calling. That’s anybody’s guess. You have to allow for the receipt of mail. So assuming that you file on the first day on a given month, I would say within a week after that filing, the creditors should all have received notice and input that information into their computers so that their people will stop calling. However, you do not have to hide from creditor phone calls once you hire the law firm. Simply advise the creditor that you are filing for bankruptcy, your attorney is David M. Siegel & Associates and give them my direct telephone number. If a creditor contacts you after you have notified that you have hired the law firm, you may have an action against that creditor under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. Most creditors will abide by the law and you should see a huge reduction in creditor calls just by hiring the law firm. Once the case is actually filed with the Clerk of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court, an official, written notice will be sent out be the clerk. That notice will contain the case number, 341 meeting of creditors date and the attorney’s complete contact information including telephone.
