--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Why should I work with an attorney during debt consolidation?

Having a law firm in your corner during your financial hardship provides you
with legal representation, attorney oversight and a stronger stance than most
debt help companies can offer on their own.

Our attorneys have the industry experience necessary to support you during your
debt consolidation journey. Ongoing legal support ensures that everything runs
smoothly throughout every phase of the process.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Can you help me if I am being sued for my debt?

We may be able to help slow down or assist in settling a lawsuit if you are sued
during the process. We provide pro se legal document drafting and attorney
assistance at no additional cost to all of our clients.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Can you help stop creditor harassment?

If you believe you are the victim of wrongful conduct by a debt collector, call
us right away. We can help you determine what actions can be taken to achieve
the best possible outcome.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Will seeking legal help for my debt affect my credit score?

Diverting your creditor payments during debt resolution creates the leverage
necessary to resolve your debts, but it can also temporarily impact your FICO
score.

Making your creditors wait for payment encourages them to lock in new terms and
agreements that will give you the best outcome like lower monthly payments and
long-term savings.

Throughout the process, you are the one in control — not your creditors. The
faster you complete your program, the faster you can work to improve your
overall creditworthiness.
