I don’t know if I need a “bankruptcy session” yet, but I just need help knowing my options. Is there a fee for this?

No, this service is completely free. If you decide later that bankruptcy is your best option, then we can schedule the required session for the bankruptcy certificate.

I really need help improving my credit – do you help with that?

Yes, we are true experts in credit reports. There are many “companies” who provide help with credit reports for a fee, but credit services from us are completely free – and they have actual value.

How long can I get help from a Financial Health Counselor?

In general, you can meet as many times as you like. We work with some individuals and families for years, if desired.
