Do You Want To Settle Your Debt?

We are a firm geared toward litigation – we never back down from a fight. However, if our client would like to settle their case, we use our litigating and negotiating skills to try to put our client in the best position to settle. If you are interested in settling, we will try to negotiate down your debt. If your creditors won’t agree to an arrangement that you can afford, we’re prepared to defend the matter through litigation.

It is important to have a lawyer working for you who can put forward a full defense to the claims the bank or debt collector has brought against you. Negotiating from a position of strength is important to achieving your desired outcome. Contact us today, and we will thoroughly explain the entire negotiation process from beginning to end.

Exploring Every Option Available To You

We will always recommend that you explore every option you have available to you so you can make the most informed decision. We are happy to thoroughly discuss the pros and cons of all options that are available to you for your credit card debt action. It is our job to help you through one of the most difficult times of your life, and our Plantation debt lawyers will do everything we can to make the process as smooth and transparent as possible.

Discharge Your Credit Cards With A Plantation Credit Card Debt Lawyer

Credit card debt is generally unsecured and therefore generally dischargeable through bankruptcy. Bankruptcy is not a great option for everyone, and we always recommend that our clients explore all their options prior to filing for bankruptcy. Perhaps the best thing about bankruptcy is that creditors know a debtor can often discharge a debt completely, leaving them with little to nothing. This alone provides creditors and debt collectors an incentive to negotiate a credit card debt down to something that a consumer can afford to pay. Our Plantation debt settlement negotiation lawyers can explore your options for lowering or discharging unsecured credit card debts.

Prepared To Fight Your Creditors In Litigation

Almost everyone who comes to see us is interested in resolving their outstanding debt amicably. In certain circumstances, though, it takes credit card litigation to bring the bank or debt collector to the table for negotiation. At our firm, we are litigators first and foremost. Our litigation strategies have resulted in some of the following results for our clients:

  • Reduction in the principal balance of the debt owed
  • Loan modification and repayment arrangements with lowered interest rates
  • Mutual walk-away (bank agrees to satisfy the debt in exchange for both parties bearing their own attorney’s fees and costs)
  • Dismissal of lawsuit and release of debt with additional monies paid to our client

We are not a debt settlement/consolidation firm that collects payments from you to distribute to your creditors. We are litigating attorneys who fight for our clients in court to achieve their most desirable outcome.

Tenacious Defense Against Debt Collection Lawsuits

It is important to know your legal rights if a debt collector or creditor is seeking money from you on an alleged debt. Our Plantation debt settlement lawyers may be able to help you bring several defenses to the collection and/or enforcement in their matter to help put you in a strong position to settle your case. Some of the common defenses that may be raised in credit card debt defense matters are:

  • Standing (the company filing suit does not own the debt)
  • Statute of limitations (varies from state-to-state)
  • Failure to attach essential documents to their lawsuit, which was filed against you
  • Incorrect amount alleged as being due and owing
  • Judgement obtained against you was VOID
  • Failure to comply with state and federal debt collection laws

To know what defenses may apply in your circumstance, you should meet with an experienced debt litigation attorney.
