Here is what you should know if you are summoned to a pre-trial hearing for debt collection.
There are several things you should know as a consumer to protect your rights in a debt collection case. In this video, Florida Consumer Protection attorney Jeffrey Hakanson explains the procedure, possible outcomes, and rights you must have protected during this process, including State exemptions such as the Homestead Exemption, Head of Household Exemption, Veterans Disability Exemptions, and more. Mr. Hakanson has experience and knowledge in defending the rights of consumers against the collection of social security benefits, social security disability benefits, and other state exemptions that do not allow creditors to garnish your wages in order to collect on debts. In some cases, you may be able to protect your home, 401k, IRA account, and other personal accounts from being subjected to garnishments.
