What is Debt Settlement?
Also known as Debt Negotiation, Debt Settlement is an aggressive strategy to debt reduction, which may be appropriate for debtors with a serious amount of debt or who are considering bankruptcy. A debt settlement company negotiates with the creditors to settle the debt for a lower amount than owed, as the debtor saves his/her money for a lump-sum settlement payment. After the debt is settled, the creditor will likely send a letter stating the debt obligation was fulfilled, and should then report to the credit bureaus that the debt has been satisfied.
Creditors are motivated to negotiate the debt simply because when a debtor is under serious financial strain and chooses bankruptcy, the creditor may receive little or no financial reimbursement through the court proceedings. Debt Settlementmay offer a viable substitute that is more likely to produce a win-win situation for both creditor and debtor.
