What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Georgia
8 years ago I went to the ER for an injury received on the job. Apparently the company never finished the paperwork (I did my portion and gave it to the hospital at the time of service) and the debt went to collections. I contacted the collectors immediately and gave them my company's information. I never heard back from the collectors. (A year or so after all of this, the company went under.)
2 weeks ago, and 8 years later, I received a collections notice from a second company. The hospital's name and the original collector's name were listed on this notice.
How do I proceed with this? I have been under the impression this was taken care of years ago. How long can a company collect on a debt? Help!
