Debt Settlement, Debt Negotiation an alternative to Bankruptcy

I think this is going to be the year that America is going to have to face its unhealthy debt problem head on. There has been a big party going on in the real estate industry for a few years and now it is time to deal with the hangover. If you have turned on the TV we are beginning to be bombarded by commericals for debt reduction, debt consolidation, credit counseling, CCCS and debt negotiation services. I do not remember seeing that many of these ads when the real estate market was doing well a few years ago. Debt gurus such as Suze Orman, Dave Ramsey, Larry Winget and Kevin Trudeau have been flooding the airwaves pitching debt salvation with their programs and products.

The fact is that millions of people are just getting to far behind on their bills to even try to bail themselves out. They would love to do a debt consolidation or debt restructure program but they just cannot afford it. Many people will look at the bankruptcy option. Getting a chapter 7 or chapter 13 bankruptcy is not as easy as it used to be. I think if you are considering a bankruptcy you may want to consider the debt negotiation option. Debt Settlement and Debt Negotiation will allow you to settle your debt without the long-term negative impact on your credit like a bankruptcy would have. You can also be out of debt in 36 months or less. Usually you can settle your debts for 40-60 cents on the dollar. In a chapter 13 you will still be making payments. The majority of credit card companies such as Discover, Master Card, Visa, American Express, MBNA, Citibank, Washington Mutual, Providian, HSBC, Chase, Bank of America, Wells Fargo and others will negotiate with you. If you file bankruptcy, they stand the chance of collecting nothing. It is very expensive for them to go to court and try to collect from you. Getting judgements is the easy part, collecting on them is the difficult part.

If you are considering bankruptcy, it is worth your time to investigate the debt negotiation option.
