Frequently Asked Questions About Our Debt Relief Services in San Marcos, TX
Why is a debt collector contacting me?
The debt collector may believe that you hold a past due debt or know the whereabouts of someone who does. They are often incredibly persistent, tracking down your contact information at home and work. If you are legally responsible for the debt, our office may be able to help you reduce the amount through negotiation.
I want to declare bankruptcy because I can’t meet my financial obligations. Do I have any other options?
While Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 bankruptcy can be valuable tools to get your finances back under control, they may have significant disadvantages. These forms of bankruptcy badly damage your credit and can result in the repossession of some of your belongings.
Assess your assets to see whether you can sell them. Look into borrowing from friends or family. Talk to a law firm like Debt Legal Defense to discuss other options that could take the place of bankruptcy.
