Benefits of Debt Negotiation
Through debt negotiation, we can help you avoid foreclosure and improve your chances of approval for home loan modifications.
We will seek to negotiate a favorable settlement with your creditors that may include deferred payment plans, interest rate reductions or reduced payments. We save you the hassle of dealing with credit card companies and other creditors.
Debt negotiation is a step toward improving your payment history on your credit report and to avoiding charge-offs.
We will help you explore all of your options for debt negotiation and other forms of debt relief.
If you have substantial assets, a reorganization of your debt through Chapter 13 bankruptcy may be a better choice.
What About Debt Consolidation Companies?
While debt consolidation companies promise to reduce your debt, they collect their fees upfront. If something happens and you are unable to make monthly payments on your debt, they will still get their fees without saving you anything.
Our firm offers a reasonable initial set-up fee and a pay-as-you-go model. You will pay per settlement we negotiate for you, so you are not paying every month.
We also offer in-depth legal knowledge, personalized service and a record of successes.
Accountability and accessibility define our practice. Getting you debt relief is our primary objective, and we will be available to you whenever you have questions or concerns.
