Don’t Lose Your Shirt in Mediation! http://youtu.be/fBcs7OrNfOU. Your Legal Leg Up is a website and business designed to help ordinary people defend themselves from debt collectors before or during a lawsuit. Many debt collectors rely on unethical and unfair collections methods that violate the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA), which is the first and best source of debtor rights, among other laws.

What makes everybody have a good chance against a debt collector is simply the way the debt collection business works. Junk debt buyers buy huge “tranches” or “portfolios” of debt — sometimes many millions of dollars of “nominal” debt at a time. “Nominal” debt means that is the amount that is theoretically owed, although the companies selling it, like the companies buying it, “discount” the value of debt depending on how long it has been in default (or based on other risk factors). Debt collectors buy huge amounts of the riskiest debt for pennies on the dollar.

Then they harass and dun the people who supposedly owe the money for a while, and then they file suit, often against dozens or hundreds of people at a time. Because the debt collectors are doing everything in “bulk,” they cannot really spend much time on individual cases. If you fight them, therefore, you have an excellent chance to make them go away — it’s simply too profitable for them to pursue the many who do not fight rather than the few who do.

If you hire a lawyer to fight for you, they are more likely to drop your case faster, but if you fight them intelligently even without a lawyer you will have an excellent chance to win the suit on your own. And this, again, is because every time you file a pleading, a motion, or discovery, or pursue any of your rights or potentials in the lawsuit, and every time you force the debt collector to appear in court, you are costing them money — money they hate to spend on you when there are so many others who won’t fight.

Q. I have a bad credit score. Can I get a debt consolidation loan?

A. Your credit score is a reflection of how you handle credit and debt. A bad credit score shows that you haven’t handled your credit accounts responsibly so a new creditor is unlikely to offer you a debt consolidation loan with a low interest rate.

Even though you may not qualify for a debt consolidation loan there is a way you can reduce your debt and save some money in the process.

It’s called debt negotiation also known as debt settlement. You can negotiate with the creditor or debt collector to settle your debt for less than what you owe. Of course, your lender will need to accept the settlement and agree to cancel the remainder of your debt. Most of them will agree to settle since they would get nothing if you decided to file for bankruptcy.

Plus, debt negotiation is not as severe a hit to your credit score as a bankruptcy filing.

If you don’t want to hassle negotiating with your creditors, you can hire a BBB accredited debt negotiation company to do it for you. Visit https://www.nationaldebtrelief.com to learn how to consolidate your credit card debt without bankruptcy.
