ERS Resolution Group Debt Collection Harassment?
Like it or not, the fact still remains that debt collectors like ERS Resolution Group are legally entitled to collect the money that you owe to them or to your first-party debt collector on whose behalf they are collecting the debt. The bad news is that there is no law or consumer rights attorney who will save you from that, however, there is good news, and the good news is that if ERS Resolution Group violates your rights during the process of debt collection with you, then there are laws that naturally protect you.
The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA) is a federal law created by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB). This law is what provides limitations on what debt collectors can do and can’t do when collecting certain types of debt, and this law extends to cover the actions of ERS Resolution Group.
Another law that regulates the actions of debt collectors is the federal Fair Credit Reporting Act o the FCRA. The FCRA covers how debt collection is reported in credit reports and the impact this will potentially have on your credit score. In addition, there are certain states that have enacted consumer protection laws that provide extra protection in addition to the FDCPA laws.
If you are facing harassment from ERS Resolution Group, it is important to get in touch with a debt representation attorney as soon as possible.
What does the law regard as harassment?
Beware, ERS Resolution Group may try to recover debts from you in a way that is harassing, abusive, or disrespectful. Common consumer complaints about ERS debt collectors include making legal threats that they are not authorized to carry out, calling at unreasonable hours, or threatening you with corporal punishment, wage garnishment (without a prior court order), or jail time. They also refer to themselves as ERS Law Group, however they are not a law office.
Such abusive acts are prohibited by the federal Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. Express Recovery knows that they are not allowed to use harassing practices to retrieve a debt and retaining the services of a debt collection harassment attorney like Consumer Rights Law firm can help you understand how the law is on your side, and how you can get compensation for harassment by Express Recovery collection agency.

More about the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA)
The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA) is the main federal law in charge of how debt collection is conducted. The FDCPA protects you by preventing debt collection companies from using abusive, unfair, or deceptive practices to coerce payments for consumer debts from you.
The FDCPA is extended to cover:
- Credit card debts
- Mortgages
- Auto loans
- Medical debts
- Other consumer debts that are for personal, family, or household purposes.
It should be noted that the FDCPA does not cover business debts and it is also not usually extended to the loans you owe to the original creditor to whom you owe the original debt.
Can I choose which debt to pay?
Yes, if you are currently making gradual payments on a debt, then you are allowed to choose which debt your debt collection agency applies your payment to.
Make sure that you keep in touch with your debt collector to keep them informed about the direction in which your debt payments should be applied. This is, of course, if the debt collector is calling you to collect on more than one debt.
if the debt collector is calling you to collect on more than one debt, then you are well with your rights to ask the debt collector to apply any payment you make to any debt of your choice.
We always advise our clients to keep a file of all the letters, documents, and other forms of communication that a debt collector has sent to you. You should also retain copies of anything you send to Express Recovery Services Inc. Keep track of the dates and times of conversations along with notes about what was discussed during these conversations and details about if any harassment ensued. These records will come in handy if you have a dispute with a debt collector, decide to retain the services of an attorney, or take your debt collector to court.

I came across this firm and just called to talk to someone to see how I could get the calls to stop. I spoke to a gentleman that was very professional and very helpful.
