Debt Settlement
"Debt Settlement is a process to settle your debts with the creditors."
A debt settlement is an agreement between a debtor and a creditor to fully satisfy a debt for a reduced payoff amount. A debt settlement is usually reached when a debtor is unable to fully meet his/her debt obligations due to financial hardships and attempts by the creditor to collect on the debt have failed. The creditor agrees to cancel part of the debt and accept the remaining sum as full repayment. Debt settlement is also called debt negotiation. Technically speaking, a debt settlement is the agreement while debt negotiation is the process through which both parties reach that agreement
