Contact our DOJ-approved agency team for a free, no-obligation consultation.
Can I qualify for debt relief with bad credit?
Yes — most people who qualify for our programs have less-than-perfect credit. In fact, that’s exactly who we’re here to help.
Will a debt relief plan hurt my credit score?
A brief, minor dip is possible, but the long-term trend is positive — most clients in Massachusetts see credit score gains as their balances decrease.
Can I use my credit cards while enrolled?
No — part of the program involves closing or suspending active credit cards to focus on paying off your current balances.
Is there a cost to enroll in a debt relief program?
Your initial Credit Counseling evaluation is completely free. If you choose to enroll, there’s a modest monthly fee that’s a fraction of the interest you’ll save.
What kinds of debt are eligible?
Credit cards, personal loans, medical bills, and some types of unsecured debt. Secured debts (like mortgages) are not included.
How long does the process take?
Most Boston clients are debt-free within 3–5 years. Your timeline depends on your total balance and the payment plan we build together.
