DS1 from TX saved $3,068

Hey everyone, my name is Darrell. I live in Texas and this story is a little embarrassing, but since Oak View law group helped me out so much, I thought I'd take a few minutes to share with you my story, and how they were able to help. I've always sort of worked in a line of work where over time was almost required. I've been working overtime for you know four or five years before this happened but basically towards the end of 2015. I transferred to a new company and while I said over time was going to be there around Christmas time. It kind of went away and they never came back so I was constantly finding myself in need of more cash. so I did the dumb thing and I started going with payday lenders but under the assumption that at some point overtime would come back. well a year and half later the overtime never came back and one payday loan turned into two and then into three and then to 4 into 5 and over the course of a year and a half I actually racked up about 11 grand in debt and there was no way I could keep making even the minimum payments on those payday loans and installment loans. so I was in a bind, so I started looking around at my options. I was trying to find a debt consolidation company online that could help me with this problem and a lot of the sites that I found they didn't seem credible. They didn't have really good reviews but when I found out OAK VIEW LAW Goup they were different. They had lots of good video testimonials, hopefully mine will be up there someday and their website seemed really really well put together and they seemed like they had their stuff together. so I decided to get all my financial paperwork together and give them a call and the gentleman who assisted me on that initial call he made it seem like it was no big deal. He's like he took all my information and he said don't worry we'll be in touch we've got this so what they did was they asked me you know of course who do I owe money to how much do I owe and then they asked me well how much can you afford to pay each paycheck. so we worked that out with them and I set up an automatic draft through them and I paid them every paycheck and overtime. let's see I started in I started in June of 2017 that was my first contact with OAK VIEW LAW group and today is January 31st 2019, that's about a year and a half and I am completely debt free that 11,000 I had racked up is gone. so I'm pretty happy about that they kept me informed throughout the process. They let me know when they contacted the the creditors, they let me know if a creditor made an offer and I could either choose to accept or or deny the offer and Oak View Law Group always gave me advice on whether or not I should take the offer and I usually follow their advice because it was it was always good and things have had a question I could always contact my customer service representative. mine was SANDRA GIBSON I usually emailed her, I never called, I think I called a couple times but she always got back to me promptly and quickly answered my question and everything was good, and yeah there really were no hiccups along the way they even a hurricane came through. Texas and we were out of work for a couple of weeks and OAK VIEW LAW Group was able to postpone my payment you know during that period which was really helpful. so I just another good thing about them they will work with you and your budget, um let's see what else oh yeah I'm supposed to say how much I saved because I did save a bunch like I said my total debt was 11 grand oh cool our group was able to settle it for about seventy four hundred bucks which is the savings of almost three thousand bucks which is awesome. I could have never done this on my loan but I'm sorry I could have never done this by myself, it was just too much to take care of, so I needed somebody I could that could that could do this for me and they were able to do it and, of course they deserve to be fade so the fees I ended up paying was $2,400. so even with what I saved that's still less than the eleven thousand that I initially dug myself into. so I consider that to be a more fair price and you know like I said the whole experience was was positive glad to be out of debt. I'm glad I found OAK VIEW LAW GROUP and if you find yourself in a similar situation I hope you have a OAK VIEW LAW GROUP a chance because um they really came through for me and I really appreciate it so. If you have any questions you know just pick up the phone a call because their help that's what they do and they're really good at it. so thanks for listening to my story and if you're in a bind like I was good luck, give oak view law group a call and they'll take care of you. Alright, Cheers

How to become debt free fast in 5 years

Getting out of debt is far more difficult than getting into financial problems. Sometimes, it feels like debts would never go away from your life. But this isn’t true. With the right steps, you can attain financial freedom one day. However, if you want to start living a debt free life fast, then you have to be extra cautious. Recently, we spoke to a few financial experts to know about a few steps to become debt free fast in just 5 years. Here are a few of them.

Negotiate with collection agencies: Irrespective of the amount you have, chatting with creditors is an effective step to lower your payoff amount. Sometimes, creditors agree to put you on a 5-year payment plan at a fixed interest rate when they feel that you’re in a genuine financial problem. This gives you a lot of relief since you know how much you have to pay and for how long. There won’t be any ugly surprises.
Change your spending habits: Reckless spending won’t help you to live debt-free. You need to change your spending habits, and to do it, you have to create a budget first. A budget plan shows you where you’re overspending, where you can cut down expenditures, and save more money to repay your bills within 5 years.

Look at your budget and analyze each category. Find out where you can reduce expenses and change your spending habits accordingly. Some key areas where you can change your spending habits are cable, subscriptions, memberships, insurance, etc.
Get a side hustle: Many people say that the best way to become debt-free is to increase your income. Extra cash can help you in living a debt-free life. You can use it to pay off your debts.

Get a side-hustle to accelerate your income. Do a part-time job or start a small side-business to earn extra money and fulfill your financial goals. Sell unnecessary items online or drive for Uber or do freelancing to get extra cash. When you want to get out of debt fast, you need to make an extra effort.
Start making payments: After you have negotiated with creditors, it’s time to start making payments. Follow the repayment plan for 5 years. If the payment plan doesn’t work for you after a few months, then call 800-530-OVLG to settle or consolidate your debts. When your accounts are in best hands, you can live in peace.
