Debt Relief Options for Colorado Residents

Debt Settlement

Many Coloradans, especially in high-cost areas like Denver or Colorado Springs, turn to debt settlement when monthly payments become unmanageable. ClearOne Advantage negotiates directly with creditors so you can resolve debts for less than you owe.

Debt Consolidation

ClearOne can connect you with a trusted partner that can determine if you qualify to combine multiple high-interest debts into a single predictable monthly payment, often at a lower effective rate. Debt consolidation fits Coloradans with steady income who want a simple, structured approach to repayment.

Debt Management Plan (DMP)

By using a debt management plan through our nonprofit credit-counseling partners, you may be able to lower credit-card interest rates to about 8 percent and pay off debt in three to five years, without taking out another loan.

Bankruptcy Alternatives

If debt relief programs aren’t the right fit, bankruptcy may be a viable option. ClearOne can connect you with trusted professionals to explore Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 bankruptcy options in Colorado. [See Which Option Fits You Best]

Colorado Consumer Protections and Debt Laws

Colorado Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (CFDCPA)

Enforced by the Colorado Attorney General’s Consumer Protection Section, this law protects residents from harassment, threats, or misleading collection tactics. Debt collectors cannot contact you outside of reasonable hours or misrepresent what you owe.

Statute of Limitations on Debt

In Colorado, the statute of limitations depends on the type of debt. For credit card debts, oral contracts, and some written contracts, the statute of limitations is three years (Colorado Revised Statutes §13-80-101). [6] This means creditors generally have three years from the last payment or activity to sue. However, written contracts and promissory notes typically have a six-year limitation period (Colorado Revised Statutes §13-80-103.5), [7] commencing from the last payment or activity date. After these periods, debts are considered “time-barred,” meaning creditors generally cannot sue to collect, though collectors may still attempt contact through other means.

State and Community Assistance Resources

  • Colorado Legal Services: Offers free legal aid for residents facing collection actions or wage garnishment. [8]
  • Colorado Housing Connects: Provides foreclosure and rental-assistance counseling. [9]
  • Colorado Attorney General’s Consumer Protection Division: Handles reports of unfair debt-collection practices and financial scams. [10]
