What are my options?
Our attorneys know that virtually anyone can find themselves in over their heads financially. A divorce, job loss, unexpected medical bills, and countless other situations can cause money problems. While bankruptcy is a viable option for many, some people may not need to or want to file bankruptcy. Czachor & Polack, LLP, can explore your bankruptcy alternatives and identify the most advisable choice. Bankruptcy alternatives can include the following:
- Debt settlement: It may be possible to negotiate with your creditors to lower your interest rates, lower payments, and arrange a payment plan.
- Credit counseling services: You can obtain guidance regarding how to pay off your bills, which bills to focus on paying first (while continuing to make minimum payments on other bills), and budgeting problems.
- Wisconsin Chapter 128 Amortization: This is unique to Wisconsin residents. Chapter 128 allows debtors to pay off debt in one monthly payment over a period of up to three years. You can pay off bills such as overdue utilities, credit card bills, medical bills, civil judgments, and other accounts in collections.
About the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA)
Under the FDCPA, creditors are prohibited from engaging in certain abusive and unlawful behaviors when attempting to collect a debt. For example, creditors cannot harass you at work when you have asked them to stop, cannot threaten criminal prosecution, and cannot contact third parties regarding your debt. If you are experiencing abuse from a creditor, tell our firm.
