Debt Settlement Services in Massachusetts
Debt settlement is the process of a borrower making a lump sum payment to a creditor for less than the balance of the debt in exchange for the creditor forgiving the remaining portion of the debt. This can be done in or out of court, and is a good tactic for people with only one or two debts. Debt settlement will avoid bankruptcy.
In most cases, the borrower must negotiate with the creditor or the creditor’s attorney. This could involve making a financial statement or going to court if the creditor has already sued the borrower. Debt settlement, if successful, resolves all possible claims between the borrower and the creditor, providing the borrower with certainty that the debt is gone forever.
Is Debt Settlement Right for You?
The forgiven debt is taxable income, and the creditor will issue a tax form to the borrower and to the IRS. The borrower should be sure to include this information in their income tax return. If debt settlement sounds like it might be the a good choice for you and your financial situation, contact Attorney Weinkauf to schedule a free consultation. We can help you navigate the challenging legal requirements for debt negotiation, avoid bankruptcy, and put you on the path to financial freedom.
