Unless you listed them on your application as contacts, they cannot contact family members to tell them about your debt. This action may be a violation of the law that may entitle you to civil damages.
If you want to discuss your rights further, you can contact me. If I cannot assist, I may be able to direct you to another attorney.
You can obtain my contact information in Maryland/DC by clicking my name or calling me at (202)294-0435. I have office access in DC and Montgomery County.
