Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Florida

I had a credit card with bank of America that went into collections in 2002, but the account was sold to an attorney for collections. Now the attorney froze my bank accounts. How is this legal and doesn't the statue of limitations restrict this from happening?

Perhaps, you have not included all facts essential to providing legal advice. It is

likely that a court order was the basis for placing a hold or garnishment on your

bank accounts. The FL statute of limitations could have been used a defense

in the court case. You do not mention whether there was a court case. You

may still assert the statute as a defense but it may be too late.

If there was no judgment against you, the lawyer has violated the law. See a consumer lawyer. See www.ConsumerLawyerHelp.com for a lawyer near your.
