To clarify, I spoke to a lawyer in my county - the county where I am being sued - about my situation. She said that it is illegal for debt collectors to call more than once in one day. Whether this is under federal law, state law, or what I'm not sure. She mentioned something about cell phones and debt collection regulations, but I can't remember what. I'm also wondering, if I managed to countersue based on harassment by this creditor, if the creditor could weasel out of the regulation due solely to the fact that the number I gave them was a call forwarding number.
