In the past year or so I have fallen into a situation where I have a lot of debt and not much money to pay it all. I have made some of the usual mistakes like payday loans, and I have signed on with a credit settlement company.
My worry is being arrested or having to go to court. I worry because of the missed payments, bounced checks and overdrawn checking account thats been closed.
I am talking to my creditors and trying to pay all that I can, I'm not ignoring their calls or anything. My settlement company keeps telling me that if I want the program to work, I shouldnt set payments up with the creditors.
As long as I'm communicating and showing effort through a credit settlement program do I need to worry about legal action?
Thanks


Don't worry about getting arrested. Won't happen.

Don't worry about going to court. It's hardly the worst thing, and many times is a good thing for a debtor.

Keep paying, negotiate lower payments if you can, and hang in there. If you are also getting calls from debt collectors, take careful notes, record if you can, and find yourself an attorney at naca.net to sue if you get abused by the debt collectors.

Send proposals to your creditors and see what they have to offer in your case. Review your present financial situation and figure out if you will be able to manage with the payments. If you can do the negotiations on your own, settlement company is not required in your case.
