How New FTC Rules for Debt Settlement Attorneys May Protect You?
Getting the debt settled so that the amounts owed stop piling up is one the most important things for consumers in trouble. With so many debt relief companies out there promising to reduce debts by half and making crazy guarantees, finding the right solution is imperative. The FTC is making attempts to help out consumers by enforcing new laws that do not allow debt settlement companies to make false statements on phone interviews, but they do not offer any protection for consumers who use the Internet or in person contact methods. We are a debt settlement attorney with years of experience in helping consumers find the right method for settling their debt.
Using a debt negotiation attorney over a debt settlement company can help you make sure that you get the right solution to your debt problems. A good debt settlement attorney offers a much broader range of services than a debt settlement company can. We will put our years of practice into reviewing your financial records to help you decide what will be the best route to go with handling your debt. We offer years of experience as a debt settlement attorney offering many debt relief programs for you. We can negotiate with your creditors to stop the harassing phone calls, late fees, penalties, and premiums being added on to your bill, in order to give you piece of mind in knowing that your debt issues are being handled with care.
Debt settlement companies cannot offer the broad range of services that we can and with the new settlement rules only protecting consumers over the phone, it is a consumer’s beware situation. The new rules do stop these companies from offering guaranteed promises of their results, such as to cut your debt in half or affordable payments. They now also have to warn consumers of the fees they will incur, how long it takes to satisfy the debt, and how the settlement will impact their credit. It specifically prohibits them from lying. If these companies were operating with honest business practices from the beginning, the FTC would not have to step in and order them to be honest. Why not skip the hassle and use an experienced debt negotiation attorney from the start? We will give you everything up front and help you get started on the road to financial freedom.
