Free Initial Consultation


My name is Anne Hansen, and I help people who are being harassed by debt collectors. 

I know being a lawyer is not the most popular profession the world, but I love my job.  I love having my own law firm in St. Paul, and I love helping Minnesotans deal with their debt collection and other consumer rights issues.

What is consumer law?  It includes things like bankruptcy, debt collection defense, suing abusive debt collectors who violate the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA), and other Minnesota state and federal consumer protection matters.  I take many types of consumer law cases, and can usually provide a referral for cases I cannot take myself.

I ONLY represent Minnesota consumers.  I do not represent original creditors (banks, credit card companies, etc.) or debt collectors (third parties who collect debts on behalf of original creditors, or who purchase defaulted debts and collect in their own name) under any circumstances.  I do not accept referrals from so-called debt settlement or debt negotiation companies because in general I think their interests are adverse to consumers.  If a company or law firm (especially an out-of-state business) promises to settle your debts for pennies on the dollar, wipe out your debt or fix your credit score, think twice before handing over your hard earned money.  If it sounds too good to be true, it's probably a scam.  Remember:  There is no quick fix for getting out of debt, just like there's no quick fix for trimming your waistline or making a killing in the stock market.

If you have questions about your legal rights, contact me today for a free initial consultation at 651.252.4611 or anne@mnconsumerattorney.com.

DISCLAIMERS

And now for the lawyer-speak:  The information on this site is not legal advice, and is purely for general informational purposes.  Viewing this website or sending me an e-mail doesn't mean I'm your lawyer.  I'm only your attorney after we've signed a contract.

Also, the law requires that I tell you Hansen Law LLC is designated as a debt relief agency by the BAPCA.  We help people file for bankruptcy relief.

Finally, yes I really am THAT pale.  I inherited my grandmothers' fair Swedish-Irish-Norwegian skin.  On the plus side, you can easily spot me in a crowd by looking for the palest person in the room.
