- Estate PlanningThere are two things you can’t avoid- death and taxes. While that may be true, you can make both of them easier to handle with some smart legal planning. This short report will tell you how. But before I proceed, I would like to correct a common misconception that a lot of people have- that is, that estate planning is only for the super-wealthy. This is not true. If you own your own home and have kids, having a legal plan is important to the security and well-being of your family.

- Debt CollectionThe Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA) was created to protect consumers. It prohibits debt collectors from using unfair, abusive or deceptive practices in the process of collecting debt. You have one year from the date the act was first violated to bring suit in state or federal court against the offending debt collector. It is crucial that you do so within this one year period, or the statute of limitations will run out, and you will not be able to sue. You may be able to recover up to $1000 in statutory damages, as well as attorney fees, court costs, and any actual damages that you may have incurred. If you have been harassed, threatened or otherwise abused by a debt collection representative, an accomplished Valencia debt negotiation lawyer from RJB Law Offices can help protect your rights.
