What alternatives are available?
When you work with the Bronx bankruptcy lawyer from our firm, we will take the time to get to know you and your situation and ensure that your rights are protected. If bankruptcy is not an option for you, we can advise you as to which of the following alternatives may work best for your situation.
Negotiating with Creditors
If stopping creditor harassment is your main concern, there is a way that
you can end creditor harassment without having to file for bankruptcy.
In some situations, simply speaking with the creditors can help. For most
creditors, receiving a portion of a payment is better than receiving none,
and they may be willing to work with you to lower payments. Additionally,
it is important that you let creditors know that you are aware of your
rights and that they cannot violate them.
Credit Counseling or Debt Counseling
Working with a credit or debt counseling agency can greatly lessen your
financial woes. These companies can help you negotiate with creditors
to repay your debts without filing for bankruptcy. In some cases, credit
agencies will be obliged to work with you instead of having you file for
bankruptcy. It is important to remember, however, that there are numerous
false credit counseling agencies, so you need to be wary of scams. Our
firm can help you find the legitimate resources you need.
Debt Consolidation
Debt reconsolidation can help you with loans and allow you to receive a
lowered interest rate or secure a fixed interest rate for the remainder
of the loan. While this alternative does help a significant number of
people, it is important that you protect yourself against scams. There
are a number of agencies that will claim to help but are simply looking
to make money. Consult our firm before signing up for a debt consolidation plan.
