Mostly what you will see is one company after another selling you on their services by offering you “guaranteed” debt solutions. It’s hard to rely on what they have to say because ultimately they want you to enroll as their client for debt settlement, debt management, or even bankruptcy services. In addition is you look at some of the major newspaper articles they will have you believe that there are zero honest debt solutions and that everyone in the business is a crook (not true!).

So who’s right? Who can you believe? Which debt relief service can you trust? Well, in an attempt to answer all those questions, I created this website full of debt information. I wanted to provide a reliable resource and also create a forum where people can have their questions answered.

There are hundreds of pages of questions I have answered as well as reports on various debt relief companies for those who request my opinion.

The most important thing to do is to educate yourself on your debt help options. The more you know the better you will be able to determine what solution is best for your situation. Only then should you begin to find and research which company you want to use for debt relief.

I welcome any and all feedback, personal stories, and addtional information to make this site more helpful to you and others.

There are several ways to get out of debt but there usually are no instant solutions, like anything, it takes work, time, and discipline.

What Are Best Ways to Find Debt Help?

In the old days (a few years ago) you could declare bankruptcy and essentially wipe out your debt but the new bankruptcy laws have changed all that. Now that too, is a long process that includes credit counseling and various stages of court approval.

So there really is no instant fix to the problem but there are solutions and your first step should be to determine which solution is best for you:

1. Bankruptcy – a last resort only for people with a situation “beyond desperate”
2. Debt Settlement – for those with more debt than they reasonably can ever pay off and need a lower payment fast
3. Debt Management/Credit Counseling - a less drastic yet longer term solution that’s better for your credit
4. Debt Consolidation – lowers you payments typically by using another asset as collateral (typically your home)
5. Spend Less and Save More – obvious and slow but it works for those with the income and discipline

Which debt help solution is best for you? That depends on your situation and is a decision only you can make but regardless, you should be cautious in your search to find debt help.

Like anything, there are good honest companies and others that you’d probably be better staying away from. Educate yourself, do you research, ask lots of questions, and speak with a few companies before making your decision.
