State Attorney General Information
Last Updated: October 24, 2011
Your state attorney general is the consumer's best friend, especially in the area of credit issues. They can advice you how to proceed in all matters of law, tell you what paperwork you need, help you find affordable representation, give you statutes, cite legal precedences pertinent to your state, get you in touch with the consumer protection agency. As a matter of fact, in many states, the attorney general shares his or her office with the state consumer protection agency. I often advise people to give their attorney general's office a call whenever I don't know the answer to a legal question, especially about state banking laws, divorce, bankruptcy and what action to take if a creditor does not treat you fairly.
