During these trying times, many people have found themselves dealing with creditors and debt collection agencies. But don't fret -- there are strong consumers laws that protect you from overly aggressive collection tactics. Here is a list of what creditors and debt collection agencies MAY NOT DO:
Severance pay?
I recently left a company for a new job. I thought I had received my final paycheck, but today I received an amount that was classified as severance. What is this? It was my decision to leave, and I received pay for my accrued vacation separately already. I'm not sure why I got this additional amount and it's referred to as severance.
Dwi
Around May 25th, I was pulled over for a DWI, I signed a letter of revocation stating my license would be revoked for 90 days. In the mean time I went to court the very following week and my case was dismissed because the cop did not complete the paperwork. My license was still revoked for 90 days and I am eligible to get it back on the 30th of this month. I also got paperwork in the mail stating I have to go back into court for my DWI, Is this correct? I am confused, it was first dismissed but I still lost my license and now I have to go back to court again after dismissal? Can you help and tell me if this is the law?
