What Is Debt Settlement?

Debt settlement is where a debtor negotiates with creditors for a reduced payment of their debts in exchange for lump sum payments and/or structured monthly payments, if necessary. If you are behind on your debts, you may benefit from having the experienced attorney of Tadross Law negotiate with your creditors.

Type of Debt that Can be Settled

There are two types of debt: secured debt and unsecured debt. The former is a type of debt that is tied to an asset, like a home, a car, or land. Secured debt, such as home loans cannot be settled via debt settlement cannot be resolved via debt settlement, as the creditor need only seize the asset as a means of recovery, but can be resolved through our other services, such as Loan Modification or Bankruptcy


Unsecured debt, on the other hand, is type of debt that is not tied to any asset and includes credit cards, medical bills, payday loans, student loans, private loans, RV/Boat debt, divorce debt, and many others. Any of these types of unsecured debts can be settled by Tadross Law, as we negotiate with the creditor on your behalf to reduce the balance owed. Once we reach an agreement with the creditor for a reduced amount, and the client pays off that amount, the debt will be considered settled or resolved. We will work closely with you to determine the best repayment plan that works for you.

Who Should Engage in Debt Settlement?

A debt settlement program is certainly not for everyone. Qualified candidates are those who have a legitimate financial hardship that has caused them to fall behind on their payments to creditors. We will not welcome clients into the program whose intent is defraud or deceive creditors. We only represent those customers who are truly in need of our services and stand to significantly improve their financial situation.

Prohibiting Debt Collection Practices

Debt collectors are prohibited from engaging in any of the following actions pursuant to the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA):

  • Calling you at work when they know your employer forbids it;
  • Calling you before 8:00 a.m. or after 9:00 p.m. in your time zone;
  • Making an excessive number of phone calls to annoy or harass you;
  • Continuing to contact you when you are being represented by someone else;
  • Telling a person other than you, such as your spouse, family member, or employer that you owe a debt;

  • Giving you false information about a debt;
  • Failing to honor your request to cease communication;
  • Threatening to take your property or garnish your wages when this action would not be permissible;
