Debt has a shelf-life that can be confusing to calculate. Is the statute of limitations of a debt based on the state where the debt was incurred? The state where the consumer now lives? Or the state of the collection agency?Out of stat debt doesn't have to be out-of-mind debt. This session will look into strategies and risks working these types of accounts.- LaDonna Bohling | Contract Callers, Inc.
