What is debt settlement?

Debt settlement is essentially the same thing as debt negotiation. Debt settlement is a process by which you negotiate your charge offs and collection accounts to get out of debt or avoid filing a bankruptcy. Creditors do want to work with you to resolve your debt issues. In fact they will often times take less than what you actually owe them just to close the account out quickly. Debt settlement can be performed by a third party debt negotiator or an attorney. Typically you can save anywhere between 40 and 60 percent of what your original balance was.
