What happens to my creditors while I'm enrolled in a Debt Settlement program?Creditors want you to pay the full amount of your debt, but they understand that lending money is a risk. They do not want you to file bankruptcy because they know if you do, they may receive nothing. They may try to recover the debt, assign it to a collection agency or sell it to another debt recovery agency altogether. However, creditors are typically open to debt arbitration once they understand that they cannot recover the full debt amount as a result of your financial hardship. This is why it is important that our clients have legitimate financial hardships. Debt arbitration is an established practice, but not everyone is eligible.
