How to get and stay in the know on debt litigation - $49/year
Very simply, the FightDebt! Newsletter provides people the best source of information about the debt collection industry – the way it works, debt collector tricks, the way they negotiate... the way they operate, in plain, ordinary language.
"Cutting-Edge Issues"
An in-depth feature on some cutting edge issue of importance to people facing debt problems. This month's issue is the way some banks are reissuing credit cards to people whose debt is past the statute of limitations in an attempt to collect uncollectable debts. We discuss whether this violates the FDCPA and what actions you might take if you receive such an offer – or have accepted one already.
An expose revealing the way some company is running a scam on consumers or debtors. We pull the scam apart to show how it works as a way to educate consumers to be more savvy and avoid these and similar scams in a world where, let's face it, a lot of people are after your money.
"In-Depth Litigation Technique"
Each month we will take a look at some aspect of debt litigation, from simple negotiation “tricks” to use or look out for, how to introduce important evidence at trial or in response to a Motion for Summary Judgment.
"Best Questions of the Month"
So much of learning is possible from hearing what other people have asked. That way you can learn how to respond to issues sometimes even before they come up in your case. And all of these questions and answers will build your repertoire of understanding of debt collectors and the collection process, making defense easier and more effective. We'll choose one or more of the best questions of the month and bring them to you in FightDebt!
"Life after Litigation"
Debt Issues aren't permanent, but sometimes it seems like the after-effects of debt troubles can last forever. This section will help you get past today's troubles and live a better life by improving your credit report and relationships with businesses. You don't have to wait till every debt is gone – the time to start living better is today.
And much more.
We spend a great deal of time on issues of debt, debt collection, consumer rights, and human rights here at Your Legal Leg Up, and every issue of FightDebt! will bring some of the best of the information we find to you in a way that will enrich and improve your life.
For a Limited Time...
If you sign up for FightDebt! now you will also receive three important reports as a Bonus.
You'll get:
Got Debt?
Are you having trouble making ends meet?
Even if you aren't already missing payments, there are things you can do if you see trouble coming. And if you are missing payments, even if it's the very beginning of debt trouble there are things you need to know about how the debt collection industry prepares to sue you.
This report takes you through the debt collection process and shows you how to control the flow of information to maintain or regain control of your life and reduce the chances that you will get sued. If you do get sued, it shows you how to increase your chances of winning. If you have debt troubles brewing, or even if you're already being sued, there are things you can do – things you need to do – to take care of yourself. This report is a big first step back to financial well-being.
Need a Lawyer?
If you are being harassed by debt collectors, you may think you need a lawyer to see you through. You may be tempted to give up if you can't get one.
Do you actually need a lawyer, though? This report helps you frame the question so you can get the best answer for you. It gives you some of the facts you need to make the right decision and helps you analyze them.
How to Hire a Lawyer
This report is a companion report to “Need a Lawyer.” If you decide you need a lawyer you still need to hire the right one.
Lawyers are expensive, so if you need one, you need to know the right questions to ask, how lawyers get paid, what they expect, and what you should expect. You'll see why hiring a lawyer in a debt case is unusually tricky and some of the questions you need to ask in order to get the right lawyer working on your case.
If you're going to get one, you better get the right one.
One year of FightDebt! is only $49 - that's only $4.08 per month - less than the cost of cup of coffee and a muffin, but you get an even better deal if you go ahead and get two years right now.
You get two years of FightDebt! (and save $25 bucks off the price) and the three reports mentioned above. This deal may change when we switch our payment system some time before January 23rd, 2012.
Plus you also get What to Do if You Get Sued, a step-by-step guide of actions to take if you get sued.
What to Do If You Get Sued
Your first step to take when you find out you're being sued is to take a deep breath, settle down, and then read the Petition. As simple as it sounds, that's the first step - it helps you get the fear under control, and debt collectors are doing everything they can to use your fear to control you. Then...this report shows you exactly what to do to protect your rights and future. It takes you deep into the litigation process, showing you the basic steps of self-preservation until you can figure it out for yourself.
If this is the first time you've been sued - or probably even if it isn't - this Report is for you.
