Your Rights When Faloni Law Group LLC Calls From 973-226-2525
The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA) and Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) give you real leverage. Here is the debt-validation playbook we use at Crowned Credit.
1. Demand Debt Validation (FDCPA §809)
Within 30 days of first contact, send Faloni Law Group LLC 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.
2. Dispute With the Bureaus (FCRA §611)
If Faloni Law Group LLC 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 973-226-2525: date, time, and what was said. Repeated calls, calls at odd hours, or threats can be FDCPA violations — and leverage for you.
4. Send a Cease-and-Desist

5. Check the Statute of Limitations
Every state limits how long a collector can sue on a debt. If the debt is time-barred, Faloni Law Group LLC generally cannot win a lawsuit — and a payment could dangerously restart that clock.
