Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in California
credit collection
I incurred a credit debt with a credit card over 7yrs ago. Now I am getting collection letters reguesting payment for even more than it was 7 yrs ago. Is this debt still owed after all these years?

Re: credit collection
The statute of limitation is generally 2 to 4 years and you may have a case to sue the collection agency under the Fair Debt Collection Act. If you fax me copies of your correspodence to 714 363 0229, I will provide you with free consultation.
