Let's check on that Golden Age: Consumer debt collection cases spike 60% in two years in Mass. courts ... oh.

[ck4829]

The number of consumer debt cases filed in state courts jumped to 146,000 in 2025, a more than 60% increase from two years ago, according to new data released by the Massachusetts Trial Court.

The data, released in a new publicly available dashboard, shows that more than three-quarters of these cases last year were filed by nine companies, most of them in the state’s small claims court.

The data shows an accelerating trend in Massachusetts small claims and civil courts that have long been swamped by debt buyers and credit card companies suing people for debts that range from hundreds to thousands of dollars.

Consumer law advocates told GBH News that the new data confirms that courts are increasingly serving as “an arm” of debt collectors.
