Nevada's payday loan law needs clarification

Recently passed payday loan law is somewhat unclear. The law was designed to protect consumers from being overcharge in fees and interest. This Friday, Nevada officials will conduct workshop to clarify some confusion.

The new law requires Nevada payday loan companies to offer customers who default, three extra months to pay off their loans without being charged additional fees and interest.

Under this law, new license will be issued for businesses that offer check-cashing services, payday loans, vehicle title loans or other short-term loans that must be paid off in less than a year.

What is unclear for many payday loan companies and other lenders is how the law applies to consumers called up for military duty. The other question is exactly how much time consumers who default on loans and accept repayment plans have, before they can be taken in front of a judge.
