What Is Debt Settlement?

Debt settlement is a process where the debt amount is reduced and is considered as the final settlement, along with the agreement of both the debtor and the creditor. This service is provided by third-party companies and then they themselves negotiate with your lender for the reduced amount. In this ongoing process, you are supposed to make your monthly payments to the debt settlement companies and not to your creditors.

If the creditors agree to the lowered settlement amount, the settlers then charge a fee from you for their work. The fee is usually a percentage of the amount reduced and is usually around 20%. The debt settlement also usually guarantee that you will be able to pay off your debt in a shorter period of time and with a lower monthly payment.

In some cases, the debt settlement companies may even waive the fee. However, this is rare and you should carefully research the company before agreeing to work with them. You should also be aware of any additional costs that may be associated with the debt settlement process.
