Consumer debt consolidation services provide debtors with counseling on financial and debt management as well as credit education. They seek to teach individuals how to better manage their money, live a debt-free life and avoid bankruptcy. Bankruptcy chapter seven and debt settlement are two methods to eliminate accumulated debt. You will reduce your overall debt and do so with a quick repayment. Contrary to debt settlement, though, in bankruptcy you appeal to the judge to oversee the liquidation of your assets to pay your creditors. Usually, the debtor is left with nothing other than any exempt property which leaves nothing available for the creditors. If you have been considering bankruptcy to settle your outstanding debt loans, you may want to consider debt reduction consolidation services instead. Such services can also help you avoid the embarrassment that comes along with filing bankruptcy. Set the goal of eliminating your unsecured debt and look into consumer credit counseling and similar services, including debt consolidation services. Be sure to choose the right company, though, by first educating yourself on how debt or credit consolidation agencies work. 

Debt consolidation agencies are set up with the goal in mind of reducing your debt, total monthly payments and interest rate. Their main task is to consolidate your debts and monthly bills into one monthly payment, convincing the creditors to accept the new terms. These agencies work with the creditors to ensure that your monthly payment required is decreased by nearly sixty percent. The consolidation agencies will evaluate your current debt and financial situation and develop an appropriate plan. Obviously, you may be paying a small fee for the services the agencies provide. You may also be required to sign a statement or letter confirming your identification, your total debt amount, the names of your creditors and your intention to payoff the debt incurred. 

Debt consolidation agencies and consumer counseling services try to help you through your financial situation, and are not only interested in making money. They will also help repair your credit through various credit repair services, including the elimination of the negative scores on your credit report due to late credit payments. This can sustain your credit worthiness by working with the creditors to show you as a bill-paying consumer. 

All you have to do is contact a debt consolidation agency or consumer counseling organization to improve your financial situation and financial future, settle debt and repair your credit.
