Learn how to protect yourself from vicarious liability under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB), the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), state attorney generals and consumer attorneys have become increasingly active in challenging the collection practices utilized by creditors and debt collectors. As a result, issues of vicarious liability are now a central concern to all participants in the collection process, including creditors, collection agencies, collection lawyers and collection industry service providers.
