Re: Mom had debt
In my experience, there is no such thing as a good consolidation company. Most of the ones have questionable and possibly illegal business practices. If your mother-in-law has that much debt, she should be a good bankruptcy attorney. The fees are generally cheaper and a chapter 7 case discharge should only take about 4 months.
