You ask about continued collection efforts for a debt that you have "gone bankrupt on".
This is the dream of your bankruptcy lawyer - and you can hire one now if you did not have one earlier or simply want to change lawyers. You can recover damages, including emotional distress, plus attorney fees - even $1,000 statutory damages and treble damages, depending on the status of the collector.
I'm eager to help you.
