-If you live in Illinois and hired a debt settlement company, you may be eligible to get your money back and additional compensation.
-Harrer Law Firm, a consumer protection law firm, gets paid only if we win.
Debt settlement companies often take advantage of consumers trying to settle their debts and get back on their feet. They make grand promises like “Slash your monthly payments by 75%!” and “Cut your interest rates to 0%!” and “Being debt free is only one click away!”
But their results are often heartbreaking. Collection lawsuits against the customer, frozen bank accounts, garnished wages, credit scores destroyed, and thousands of dollars lost to these settlement companies that do nothing. Quite the opposite of what they promise.
If you live in Illinois and hired a debt settlement company, you may be able to recover what you paid to the debt settlement company and additional compensation.
A little-known Illinois law, the Debt Settlement Consumer Protection Act (DSPCA) was created to protect Illinois consumers from these companies.

If we win, the law requires the debt settlement company to pay your attorneys’ fees and costs. That’s how we’re able to litigate these cases without charging our clients, we only get paid if we win. And, so far, we’ve always won. Even if we lost, you wouldn’t pay anything.
We can’t guarantee anything, but we’ve been able to recover what our clients paid to the settlement company as well as additional compensation for our clients.
Yes. Though law firms are sometimes exempt, if a law firm offers services that primarily involve negotiating, settling, or altering the terms of a consumer’s debt directly with creditors on behalf of the consumer, it could be considered a debt settlement company under the law.
