For lawyers who do not specialize in consumer rights, this book is intended
to be a useful introduction to strategies for dealing with debts. Although we
have deleted many of the statutory references due to their inaccessibility to
consumers, we have included a bibliography with references to treatises containing
more detailed legal information.
The best source of information for lawyers on consumer claims related to credit
and utility issues is the National Consumer Law Center's series
of consumer law manuals. For more details, see the bibliography, call NCLC
Publications at (617) 542-9595, FAX (617) 542-8028, or write: National Consumer
Law Center, Publications Department, 77 Summer Street, 10th Floor, Boston, MA
02110.
Lawyers who do specialize in consumer credit problems may already own other
NCLC publications. You should consider using Surviving Debt to educate your
clients, paralegals, law students or others in your office. Bulk publication
orders can be arranged at substantial discounts by contacting NCLC Publications
at (617) 542-9595.
