Getting calls for the same debt

I got a collection letter on a debt in 2009. I didn’t pay anything on the debt. Now I’m getting calls for the same debt from a law firm. Can I negotiate with the OC now?

You'd have to talk to the law firm now, but get your debt validated before that.

Hey, first check with the SOL. Which is the state you are in and what kind of a debt is it?

Welcome to the forums!!!
Now you will have to deal with the law firm. Ask them to validate the debt in writing via certified mail with a return receipt request. If they give you a valid proof, then negotiate with them and make your payments asap.
