Charlotte, NC -- (ReleaseWire) -- 06/13/2016 --The people at Miller, Stark, Klein and Associates have over 75 years of combined experience in debt collections and debt resolution solutions. To help consumers find the path toward greater financial freedom, here are some tips to follow.
Determine What You Can Afford to Pay
Once you have determined that you need help with debt management and settling debt, your first step should be to organize all the debts you owe. Start by making a list of all creditors and the total amount you owe to each creditor. Then, determine what you can afford to pay. It may be as low as $20 per month, but creditors and collection agencies will appreciate you trying to work out an agreement with them.
Ask to Remove Negative Information off Credit Report
Reach out to each creditor and collection agency and set up installment/payment plans with each of them. Once all debts are paid in full, your next step should be to talk to them about removing all negative information from your credit report. Some creditors will agree to this and others won't, but it's worth the try.
Get All Debt Settlement Agreements in Writing
Once you have a game plan set in stone with each creditor, be sure to ask for all your agreements in writing. Having this information documented and in writing will not only keep your agreements organized, but they will also serve as evidence should one creditor not hold up their end of the bargain.
