Private lenders who engage in unfair debt collection practices can be sued for damages under the Texas Debt Collection Act (the “TDCA”). Under the TDCA, borrowers can sue for actual damages, statutory damages up to $100 per violation for certain violations, and attorney’s fees and costs. Student loan borrowers in Texas can also seek an injunction to prevent their lender from committing additional violations of the law.

How To Stop Abusive Student Loan Debt Collection Practices

Are you being harassed by a debt collector for a private student loan? Are there any student loan laws that can potentially be used to protect consumers?  In short, you may be able to use both the Texas Debt Collection Act and the federal Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (the “FDCPA”) to stop the collection abuse or end collection harassment.

The FDCPA provides that student loan borrowers can sue third party debt collectors for unfair collection practices and recover actual damages, statutory damages up to $1000 per case, and reasonable attorney’s fees and costs. Some of the most common violations of the FDCPA can be found on our debt collection harassment page.

If an abusive private lender or debt collector is pursuing you for nonpayment of your private student loan, you should immediately begin keeping detailed written records of all communications. You should also contact The Deese Law Firm at 806.475.0150 to schedule a complimentary case evaluation with Lubbock student loan attorney Kyle S. Deese.
