Is this right for you?

  • You're behind on payments or close to it
  • Your debts exceed what your business can realistically pay back in full
  • You'd accept some credit impact to resolve the debt for good
  • You want a specialist negotiating instead of doing it alone

What to know

  • Settlement can negatively affect your business and personal credit
  • Interest, fees, and collection activity often continue while you negotiate
  • Forgiven debt may be taxable — talk to your accountant
  • Some creditors sue rather than settle; specialists plan for this
  • Settlement is not right for every business — that's what the free review is for

Common questions

How much can I settle a business debt for?

+

It varies widely by creditor, debt type, and your situation. Some balances settle for 40–60 cents on the dollar; others much higher or lower. No one can guarantee an amount up front.

How long does settlement take?

+

Most programs run 12–36 months depending on debt size, creditor mix, and your ability to fund the settlements. A specialist will give you a realistic timeline.

Will I get sued during settlement?

+

It's possible. Creditors have the right to pursue collection. Specialists know which creditors are more likely to litigate and build the plan accordingly.
