Debt Relief Options for Florida Residents

Debt Settlement

With rising living costs across Florida’s major cities, many residents turn to debt settlement when credit card balances become overwhelming. ClearOne Advantage negotiates directly with your creditors so you can resolve unsecured debts for less than you owe.

Debt Consolidation

Debt consolidation allows Floridians to combine multiple high-interest debts into a single predictable monthly plan payment. This option works well for residents with steady income who want a simplified approach to repayment.

Debt Management Plan (DMP)

A personalized debt management plan can make your monthly payments more manageable while helping you cut high interest charges. It’s an effective way to get ahead on your payoff timeline without taking out another loan.

Bankruptcy Alternatives

If other options aren’t suitable, bankruptcy may be a path forward. ClearOne can connect you with trusted professionals familiar with Florida’s Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 bankruptcy process.

Florida Consumer Protections and Debt Laws

Florida Consumer Collection Practices Act (FCCPA)

The FCCPA works alongside federal laws to protect Floridians from illegal or abusive collection tactics. Collectors cannot threaten, harass, or misrepresent what you owe. [6] Statute of Limitations on Debt in Florida Florida’s statute of limitations for most consumer debts, including credit cards, is five years for written contracts. After this period, creditors may not be able to sue to collect, although they may still request voluntary payment. [7]

Wage Garnishment Rules in Florida

Florida generally allows wage garnishment, but limits apply. A portion of your disposable earnings may be protected depending on your income and household status. Certain income types, such as Social Security, may be exempt.[8]
