1. Demand Debt Validation (FDCPA §809)
Within 30 days of first contact, send Tri-State Adjustments Incorporated a written debt-validation letter. They must prove the debt is yours, the amount is right, and they have the legal authority to collect — or stop collecting.

If Tri-State Adjustments Incorporated reported a tradeline, dispute it with Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion. They have 30 days to investigate; unverifiable items must be corrected or deleted.
3. Log the Calls
Write down every call from 608-788-8683: date, time, and what was said. Repeated calls, calls at odd hours, or threats can be FDCPA violations — and leverage for you.

You can demand in writing that Tri-State Adjustments Incorporated stop calling you entirely. The calls must stop, even though they may still report or pursue other legal steps.
5. Check the Statute of Limitations
