Debt Settlement & Debt Resolution Attorney Services
Free Consultation Available
If you are overwhelmed by credit card debt, collection accounts, or personal loans, you may have legal options.
At Ginsburg Law Group, we provide attorney-directed debt resolution representation to consumers seeking structured, legally informed solutions. We do not operate a debt relief “program.” We provide individualized legal representation tailored to each client’s circumstances.
What Is Debt Settlement?
Debt settlement (also called debt resolution) is the process of negotiating with a creditor or debt collector to resolve a debt for less than the full amount owed or to establish structured repayment terms.
Depending on the creditor and circumstances, a resolution may include:
-
A reduced lump sum payoff
-
Waiver of certain interest or fees
-
Structured payment arrangements
-
Written settlement documentation
-
Resolution of charged-off accounts
Creditors are not required to negotiate or accept reduced payments. Results depend on many factors, including creditor policies, account history, financial hardship, and legal exposure.
Legal Representation vs. Debt Settlement Companies
There is a significant difference between hiring a law firm and enrolling in a non-lawyer debt settlement company.
When you retain Ginsburg Law Group:
✔ An attorney evaluates your debts and collection history
✔ We assess statute of limitations issues
✔ We analyze potential legal defenses
✔ We evaluate litigation risk
✔ We communicate directly with creditors and their counsel
✔ We review and document negotiated agreements
If a creditor violates consumer protection laws, we evaluate whether additional legal remedies may apply.
Our role is to provide legal advice and representation — not sales-based enrollment in a settlement program.
Types of Debt We Help Resolve
We assist clients with many forms of unsecured debt, including:
-
Credit card debt
-
Medical debt
-
Personal loans
-
Retail accounts
-
Collection accounts
-
Charge-offs
-
Certain private student loan disputes (case-specific)
If litigation has already been filed, representation may require a separate written agreement.
Important Considerations Before Pursuing Debt Settlement
Debt settlement is not risk-free. Clients should understand:
-
Creditors may refuse to negotiate.
-
Collection efforts may continue during negotiations.
-
Interest and fees may continue to accrue.
-
Credit reporting may be negatively affected.
-
Creditors may file lawsuits before or during negotiations.
-
Forgiven debt may have tax consequences.
We review these risks before recommending any strategy.
In some cases, litigation defense, structured repayment, or bankruptcy consultation may be more appropriate.
Transparent Legal Fees
We provide written fee agreements that clearly explain how legal fees are calculated.
Fees are charged for professional legal services performed and are not contingent upon outcome unless expressly stated in writing.
If you are enrolled in a legal plan such as MetLife Legal Plan, we can evaluate whether coverage applies to debt-related services.
