Texas Debt Collection Laws
Texas is a community property state, which can affect liability for certain marital debts; third-party collectors must still follow the FDCPA and Texas Finance Code debt collection provisions.
In Texas, creditors have 4 years (written contracts) to file a lawsuit for unpaid debts under written contracts. After this period, the debt is considered "time-barred" and creditors lose the legal right to sue you, though they may still attempt to collect.
In addition to federal protections under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA), residents may have additional state-level protections against abusive collection practices.
