This episode explains the differences between debt settlement and debt relief programs, highlighting the risks and legal pitfalls of many commercial debt relief companies. It emphasizes that many advertised programs are not run by law firms, often charge illegal upfront fees, and leave consumers unprotected if sued. In contrast, attorney-supervised debt settlement, like that offered by Georgiou Law, provides legal representation, follows federal regulations, and offers transparent, client-focused solutions. The episode outlines red flags to watch for in debt relief companies and stresses the importance of legal guidance and education in managing debt.
