Debt Consolidation Schemes

New York City Bankruptcy Attorneys Have the Facts You Need About Debt Consolidation Schemes

The Meyers Law Firm — Generations of Successful Service to Greater New York

A debt consolidation and a consumer bankruptcy filing could not be more different. Debt consolidation programs favor creditors when "negotiating" resolutions to debt problems, typically to the debtor's detriment.

Debt consolidation provides no legal protection against creditors. Creditor harassment, foreclosure, car or truck repossession, and wage garnishment can continue to plague you as they always have. Even if a debt consolidation effort was successful, resulting in forgiveness of some of your debt, you may have to eventually deal with tax consequences, since forgiven debt can be treated as income.

Bankruptcy offers a much more solid, healthy, gradual solution, and allows you to make your financial comeback with a strategy that is comfortable for you. It allows you a "re-do," or "fresh start," and keeps you alert to debt problems and the need for credit repair in the future.

For those who seek an alternative to bankruptcy, The Meyers Law Firm uses its debt negotiation experience to lobby creditors for reductions in interest rates and extensions of terms. Even an alternative to bankruptcy is preferable to working with debt consolidation companies that advertise on TV, promising you the moon and never delivering.
