LIR, thanks for all of the info you provide. I have an update on my situation. I called my debt negotiation company and raised hell. In one week, they managed to take care of all of my accounts, except the before mentioned Citibank account. I know my credit history is shot for a while but I...
I received notice because they delivered it to my parents when they found out I was no longer at my former address. I called the clerk of courts office and explained that I had not lived in La. for quite a while. She told me I needed to take it up with the lawyer's office. I called the...

How does moving from a community property state to a non community property state affect a non filing spouse? CC's are in one spouses name, but the debt was incurred in both the community property state and the non community property state over a period of five...
I have also heard a lot of bad things about some of the "non profit" counsiling service. Research everything before making a decision. I'm sure there is someone on this board who can provide you with the name of a respected service if one exists. The problem with these services is that some...

I have seen a few posts on here with people asking if debt negotiation firms are a good alternative to bankruptcy. I will not name the one I used, but want to give people a bit of advice--run, don't walk away from these places.
They take advantage of people...
