Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Florida
What is my recourse regarding a bogus claim of damaged carpet after I moved out of apartment? They immediately sent to a collection agency that is also harassing me. I responded by disputing claim in writing, but both companies are still sending me a bill and are now charging interest on something that is disputed with no proof.

There are two issues here:One is your lease agreement/tennent law; the other is the collection laws. More facts are needed to give an opinion. You should consult a lawyer who handles both types of matters. I do if you are in south Florida. If not, for a consumer lawyer in your area, go to
