Attorney to Attorney Referrals
Bankruptcy prospects who do not pass the Chapter 7 Means Test and do not want to file Chapter 13 often resort to debt settlement programs to resolve their debt. The problem facing most debt settlement services is the lack of true attorney representation from the start. Clients entering into debt settlement programs are often harassed non-stop by creditors and may face creditor lawsuits without receiving proper legal representation from an experienced debt defense attorney. Advantage Legal Center offers a mutually beneficial solution for your clients.
Solution For Clients
- Advantage Legal Center does not provide debt settlement services. Our law firm provides upfront legal representation for Texans who enroll in a separate debt settlement program with the following benefits:
- Enforcing the Texas Finance Code to stop first-party creditors from illegally harassing our clients. Our firm is highly successful, even with predatory lenders who are known for their very aggressive collection tactics. Although we can also enforce the FDCPA, it only provides protections from third-party debt collectors. Creditor communications are handled by our law office, allowing our clients to have a significantly less stressful experience when utilizing a debt settlement program.
- Despite the consumer protections in Texas, some creditors and debt collectors are very litigious. Through upfront legal representation by our highly experienced associated Texas Debt Defense attorney, creditors, and debt collectors may think twice about filing a lawsuit as he has successfully defended thousands of creditor debt claims. With legal represenation, filing a lawsuit may delay a creditor or debt collector receiving a settlement in some cases. In addition, our firm takes measures to help minimize creditor lawsuits when a debt is in a delinquent status before settlement.
Legal Protections For Debt Settlement Clients
Lawsuits sometimes happen in debt settlement programs. However, by utilizing separate legal representation, an agreement is usually reached with the creditor or debt collector without the need for a client to appear in court. An appearance attorney is utilized if a court appearance becomes necessary.
Clients with pre-existing lawsuits can often be enrolled since the client will have additional time to build funds for settlement.
While the above protections do not provide the same protections as a Chapter 13 bankruptcy, for debtors who want to avoid bankruptcy or, in some cases, save more money than a Chapter 13, debt settlement becomes a viable option. Advantage Legal Center can also recommend a Texas-based settlement company with expertise in assisting debtors with income levels, assets, or other situations where a non-bankruptcy option is more viable. The firm exclusively serves Texas residents and offers much lower fees than most out-of-state debt relief firms.”
When you refer clients to our law firm, we can offer you a generous attorney fee split, provided that, you are a properly licensed attorney. Stop losing clients to debt settlement companies that charge high fees and provide little to no legal protections, and contact our B2B Relationship Manager, Mark Garcia, at 210-624-8602 for more information.
