Louisiana Debt Collection Laws
Louisiana’s consumer laws work alongside the FDCPA; Louisiana’s civil-law system can affect how judgments and garnishments are handled after a debt is reduced to judgment.
In Louisiana, creditors have 10 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.
