The Paterson Advantage: Local Data & Industry Context
Paterson is one of the most densely populated and diverse cities in the United States, with a population of over 160,000 residents and a median household income of $53,766. While the “Silk City” legacy remains in our historic mills, modern Paterson is a healthcare and logistics powerhouse. However, with nearly a quarter of the population living in poverty, recovery requires a surgical balance of empathy and firm mediation. Nexa understands the local landscape—from the medical offices near Main Street to the industrial suppliers along the Passaic River.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
1. How does the 2025 Medical Debt Relief Act affect my Paterson practice?
The new law prevents reporting any medical debt under $500 to credit bureaus and caps interest at 3%. Nexa’s systems are already updated to ensure your outreach remains 100% compliant with these new NJ-specific protections.
2. Can you garnish wages in New Jersey for unpaid business debt?
Yes. Once we obtain a judgment, we can initiate a “Wage Execution.” However, NJ law is strict—only one execution can be active at a time, and it is usually capped at 10% of gross pay. Nexa handles the entire court filing process for you.
3. What happens if a debtor has moved out of Passaic County?
Nexa’s reach is national. Our skip-tracing tools allow us to track debtors across state lines while maintaining compliance with both New Jersey and the laws of the destination state.
