Second Collector Owe Disclosure/Notice Too?

Post by David A. Szwak »

Does the FDCPA require the second debt collector to start all over with the initial disclosure requirements, etc. or can they piggyback on the previous debt collector's letter?

Split of authority on this point, but see the discussion in: Turner v. Shenandoah Legal Group, P.C., 2006 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 39341 (U.S.D.C. E.D. Va. 2006).
