Legitimate Debt Settlement Companies- Eliminating Debt in a Legal Way
Finding a legitimate debt settlement company can help ease any financial struggles you may be experiencing.
Debt settlement is a good way to cut back your overall debt, in some cases by as much as 70%. The right company can save you an average of about 40%, but some companies are able to get the creditors to agree to more of a write off. If you need to find a legitimate company here are a few things you should look for.
Aurora Lillo Editor of the "Best Debt Settlement Companies" website -- http://www.BestDebtSettlementCompanies.org -- pointed out;
"...Experience matters greatly when it comes to these types of businesses. The actual settlement process can be lengthy and tricky. The agency will contact the creditors on your behalf and work directly with them to come to an acceptable agreement for all parties. Then they will then help create a budget for you allowing you to save money to make the agreement. Using one that doesn't have experience can slow the process down. You may also start crossing in to boundaries that may not be completely legal. Not to mention you may also not get the best deal possible. An experienced debt settlement establishment will already have a good solid knowledge base of different creditors and what can usually be accomplished..."
Reputation is something else that should be considered. If you are looking at an agency that has little contact information, this is likely not a good choice. You don't have to meet a debt counselor in person, but the ability to reach an individual who will be working on your case will be valuable, even if only on the phone. Many places will ask you to fill out a simple contact form online. As long as this is followed up with a personal phone call, you should be in the clear. You can find testimonials and references on several websites. Also remember to check resources such as the Better Business Bureau. This will allow you to be confidant in your choice when choosing a legal service.
"...Debt relief services aren't going to be free. If you run across a company that promises free settlements, you should be weary of them. In most cases these companies will charge a percentage of either the overall debt or the overall savings. In some cases a flat monthly fee is charged for the duration of the services provided. It's generally in your best interest to choose a company that offers fees based on the percentage table. This will benefit both parties, making it beneficial for the company to work quickly for you, and not forcing you to pay for months and months of services..." added A. Lillo.
