Debt settlement is the plan carried out by hiring services of a debt settlement firm. Once hiring has been done then the case of the person is handed over to the financial experts of the settlement firm. Afterwards, financial experts of the settlement firms use all their tactics to get maximum reduction for their clients in the over all amount to be paid. This reduction ranges from 50 to 60% of the amount to be paid. In case credit card companies do not agree to settle the debts then these experts use the threat of bankruptcy. Here they agree to settle the debt as they know that in this way they will be bale to get half of the amount back as compared to insolvency where they will lose all of their money.
