I am disabled, going through a divorce and reside in Texas. I have an abundance of uncsecured debt and am already in collections..what are the pros and cons of bankruptcy versus debt settlement. (I've talked with an attorney about bankruptcy and to several debt settlement companies) I'm not sure what is best for me. Help!


I agree with Sass. Many debt settlement companies have been sued. Check anybody out that you decide to do business with. You can call your Attorney Generals office and BBB and ask. KYSIDE38

If I lived in TX this is what I would do.

In TX they can't garnish your wages or take your home. In four years the SOL expires on those accounts you can't pay, and in seven years the accounts fall off your credit report.

Just don't pay them, if you can't afford to. And, don't declare BK. You won't need to.
